In brief: Pentair large-format pool light niche gasket set. Pentair part number 79200400.
Sealing a large light niche
With a large-format niche, the sealing surface is larger, and even the slightest unevenness in compression can create a leak path. This gasket set is designed for this specific geometry.
These gaskets age due to exposure to chlorine, ultraviolet light, and tightening cycles. They harden and take on the permanent imprint of the liner or wall they were compressed against.
In a vinyl pool, replace them whenever the liner is changed. They are one of the parts that should never be reused.
