FAQ

This gasket fits Hayward Super Pump strainer cover/lid applications. It is compatible with Super Pump model families including SP1600X, SP2600, and SP2600X.
The part number is SPX1600S. This gasket also cross-references with O-177 and O-177-9 for the same Super Pump strainer cover/lid application.
Common symptoms include air getting into the pump basket area, loss of prime, reduced water flow, bubbles returning to the pool, or water seepage around the pump lid. A flattened, cracked, brittle, or stretched gasket is a common cause.
This is a simple maintenance task. You only need to shut off power to the pump, relieve system pressure, remove the strainer cover, clean the gasket groove and lid sealing surface, and install the new gasket. The job typically takes about 5 to 15 minutes and does not require special tools.
Yes. Clean the lid sealing surface and gasket channel thoroughly so dirt, old lubricant, or debris does not prevent a good seal. Inspect the pump lid for cracks or warping, and check that the basket area is clean. If the old gasket failed from drying out or flattening, lightly lubricating the new gasket with a pool-safe lubricant can help it seat properly.
These gaskets commonly wear out from age, repeated lid removal, chemical exposure, heat, UV exposure, and running dry or hot. Dirt on the sealing surfaces or overtightening the lid can also distort the gasket and lead to air leaks.
Yes, this is a pack of 2 SPX1600S cover gaskets.
