SPX0714BA Key Cover and Handle Assembly Compatible with Hayward Pool Filter

Awesome, high quality,perfect replacement fit👏

This Key/Cap for our Hayward pool filter works great! EASY installation, materials are substantial and a great price. Much cheaper than going to our pool store or ordering through Hayward.

Installed three days ago and fits/performs perfectly in replacing the Hayward Vari-Flo SP0174T. I lubed the spider gasket, O-Rings on the shaft, and large top O-Ring. Can’t comment on quality, but it definitely fits. Time will tell. Past couple years I’ve had sand on pool floor. I’d vacuum, then next day there would be sand. Along with that, this year I started losing water through the backwash hose. Clearly, gaskets/O-rings were bad. Problems solved. I plan on lubing it yearly at beginning of each season. It’s easy, just remove the six bolts, lube, put back on. This review is mainly for people wondering if it fits their system. My manual is for Hayward Vari-Flo XL models SP0174TC, SP0174TE, and SP0174T. My sand filter is S166T.

Worked great on my Hayward, price is awesome compared to my local pool company.

It fits together nicely and easily on my 15 year old Hayward valve. No leakage at all around the seam. It moves so smoothly in clockwise rotation and locks into place smoothly. We’re very satisfied with this replacement part.

Had to replace the multi-port key assembly when I opened the pool last year. This one cost significantly less than the name brand it replaced, and it came with the necessary gaskets / seals, which the name brand didn't include. Now in its second season of service, it has worked flawlessly - and it was so easy to perform the change myself. Not sure what my pool company would have charged, but this is a super easy DIY replacement.

My prior multi port valve had gotten extremely hard to turn and water had started to lightly flow after the backwash process I notice. Doing some research lead me to the replacement of such. Reading the reviews it seemed to be a simple fix so I took on the challenge and took less than 10mins to replace. Fit was perfect and works like a charm. Hopefully it will last many of years but I did grab some coverage JUST INCASE

I liked how fast I received it. It was a painless install. It worked exactly like it was designed, with a very smooth operation. The con is only one and that is, it seems pricey. It's mostly plastic with stainless steel parts, I reckon that's what brings the total price so high.

Quedo Excelente, sella a la perfeccion, no hay perdidas ni fugas en las juntas, y llego en menos del tiempo estiamado, se siente de muy buena calidad, preferi cambiar todo el set en lugar de solo cambiar la junta principal, la verdad lo recomiento ampliamente
