Two RV camper systems accessories are competing for your replacement buy: the Black RV Slide Out Seal 018-312-EKD & 018-341 EK and the 018-312-EKD 018-341-EK 2-in-1 RV Slide Out Seal. Both pair the 018-312-EKD D seal with the 018-341-EK base seal, are new, and come in the same finish. The real choice comes down to how much you want to pay and how much you value seeing Black and both part numbers in the product name.
Quick verdict
If you have already confirmed that your slideout uses 018-312-EKD and 018-341-EK, the lower-priced 2-in-1 version is the more sensible buy. The Black version makes identification easier, but that clarity comes with a higher listed price.

Where each product wins
Where the Black RV Slide Out Seal wins: identification. The product name starts with Black and carries both part numbers, so it is the easier of the two to spot in a search. The cost is the trade-off.
Where the 2-in-1 wins: price. It is the lower-priced of the two and still names both part numbers. The product name omits Black, so you need to confirm the finish in the product details.
Product notes
Black RV Slide Out Seal 018-312-EKD & 018-341 EK
The higher-priced option makes no secret of what it is. The product name leads with Black and names both 018-312-EKD and 018-341 EK, so it is the easiest of the two to spot in a crowded list. The installation description lines up with the other product: slide the 018-312-EKD D seal onto the 018-341-EK base and screw the rubber into place. Its limitation is cost. This is the more expensive of the two, and the extra money does not buy a different finish or an extra item. You are paying for the convenience of a product name that spells everything out. If that convenience is worth it, the Black version is a clean fit.
018-312-EKD 018-341-EK 2-in-1 RV Slide Out Seal
This one is the lower-priced route to the same pair of part numbers. The product name calls it a 2-in-1 seal, which matches the D seal / EK base assembly both products describe. The product details list black, new condition, and the same money-back-or-replacement after-sales policy. It is the option to choose when you already know which part numbers your camper needs and you want to keep the purchase on the lower end of this pair's price spread. The trade-off is smaller: the product name does not include Black. You need to look at the product details to confirm the finish, whereas the Black version tells you up front. That is a minor extra step for the lower price.
Final choice by use case
- If your priority is paying the lower listed price for the same part pairing, buy the 2-in-1 RV Slide Out Seal at USD 65.99.
- If you prefer the product name to state Black and both part numbers and you do not mind spending more, buy the Black RV Slide Out Seal at USD 85.99.
- For most replacement jobs, the 2-in-1 version is the pick; the $20 spread does not change the part numbers or finish.
