FAQ

This C6 / C-6 large wheel is used on Polaris pressure-side pool cleaners in the 180 and 280 family, including Polaris 180, Polaris 280, Polaris 280 TankTrax, and Polaris VAC-Sweep 280 models. If your cleaner uses the C6 large drive wheel style, this part is the correct wheel family to check against your current setup.
This replacement wheel matches part number C6, also commonly written as C-6. Related parts often used with this wheel assembly include the C10 MaxTrax tire and C60 wheel bearing, but those are separate parts to verify based on your cleaner's condition.
Common signs include cracked or split wheels, wobbling during operation, poor tracking, reduced climbing ability, slipping on pool surfaces, or a cleaner that moves unevenly. If the wheel is damaged or the tire no longer grips well, replacing the large wheel can help restore normal movement.
Yes. The C6 large wheel is designed to use the C10 MaxTrax tire. If your existing tire is badly worn, hardened, or torn, inspect it when replacing the wheel so you do not reinstall a traction problem onto a new wheel.
Not always. The C6 wheel itself is commonly sold separately, and wheel bearings may need to be purchased independently depending on the listing. A commonly referenced bearing for this wheel is C60, so it is a good idea to inspect the existing bearing for drag, looseness, or corrosion before installation.
For most owners, this is a straightforward repair. Installation usually takes about 10 to 20 minutes per wheel with basic hand tools, typically a screwdriver for the wheel screw and washer hardware. Before reassembly, check that the axle area is clean and that the wheel spins freely without binding.
Check the tire tread, wheel bearing condition, wheel screw and washer hardware, and the axle area for wear or debris. If the cleaner still has weak traction or erratic movement after wheel replacement, worn tires, seized bearings, or drivetrain-related issues may also need attention.
