DURATECH - Face plate RF Adagio 170mm light grey

DURATECH Face plate RF Adagio 170mm light grey

The DURATECH Face plate RF Adagio 170mm in light grey is a replacement or finishing cover plate designed for use with the Adagio RF series of pool fittings. This face plate serves as the visible front component of a wall-mounted pool fitting, providing a neat, finished appearance while protecting the internal fitting assembly. The 170mm sizing refers to the outer diameter of the plate, making it suitable for standard Adagio RF series inlets and outlets installed in pool walls. The light grey colour offers a discreet, modern aesthetic that blends naturally with a wide range of liner, concrete, and tiled pool finishes.

Face plates of this type are essential components in the pool water circulation system. They cover the internal body of a wall fitting — such as a return inlet, suction fitting, or floor drain — and serve both a functional and aesthetic purpose. The plate channels water flow correctly while concealing fixings, rough edges, and the fitting body from view. Without a correctly matched face plate, the fitting installation remains unfinished and may be susceptible to damage or poor water distribution.

Technical characteristics and construction

The face plate is manufactured from durable pool-grade plastic, resistant to chlorinated water, UV exposure, and the chemical environment of a pool installation. The 170mm diameter is the standard sizing for the Adagio RF series, meaning this plate is specifically designed to match Adagio RF series bodies and is not intended as a universal fitting. The RF designation typically refers to the fitting series within the Adagio product range, ensuring dimensional compatibility with the corresponding wall fitting body.

The light grey colour coding is consistent with DURATECH’s colour-range approach for its fittings and accessories, allowing pool installers and owners to maintain visual consistency across all visible fitting surfaces. Installation is straightforward: the face plate clips or screws onto the pre-installed fitting body embedded in the pool wall, requiring no specialist tools beyond basic pool installation equipment.

Suitability and application

This face plate is intended for use in residential and light commercial swimming pools where Adagio RF series fittings have been installed. It is most commonly required as a replacement for a damaged, discoloured, or missing original face plate, or as part of a complete new fitting installation using the Adagio RF system. It is suitable for pools of all standard sizes, provided the underlying fitting body is from the Adagio RF series with a 170mm face plate aperture. The light grey version is particularly well suited to pools with grey or neutral-toned interiors, modern liner designs, or concrete finishes where a low-contrast, understated appearance is preferred. Pool renovators replacing aged or sun-faded fittings will find this an effective and direct replacement solution.
