Introduction

As a retailer of hot tub spare parts, I’m excited to offer this essential Hayward Vacuum Fitting Locknut. This precision-engineered component is a critical element for securing vacuum fittings in your pool system, ensuring leak-free operation and proper alignment of your pool’s vacuum components.

Product Overview

The Hayward Vacuum Fitting Locknut is a specialized 2″ component designed to create secure, watertight connections for your pool’s vacuum system. This locknut works in conjunction with Hayward vacuum fittings to properly secure the fitting to your pool’s wall or floor, preventing movement and ensuring optimal performance.

Constructed from durable ABS material, this locknut offers excellent resistance to pool chemicals and UV exposure, providing long-lasting reliability even in challenging pool environments. The precise threading ensures a perfect match with compatible Hayward vacuum fittings, creating professional-quality installations.

Key Features

• Designed specifically for 2″ Hayward vacuum fittings

Installation

This locknut is a crucial component when installing or replacing Hayward vacuum fittings.

• When replacing, ensure compatible sizing with your existing fittings
• Avoid over-tightening, which can damage the locknut or fitting
