Polaris - Lock Washer for Swing Axle (C36) – Pack of 5 - W7130223

Polaris – Lock Washer for Swing Axle (C36) – Pack of 5

This is the genuine Polaris replacement lock washer (part reference C36 / C45) for the swing axle assembly of the Polaris 280 and 280 TankTrax pressure-side pool cleaners. Sold as a pack of 5, these small but critical washers sit on the screws that secure the axle block kit to the cleaner’s frame, preventing any movement that would compromise cleaning performance. Seven washers are required per cleaner, so having spares on hand is always recommended.

Compatibilidad

Designed for the Polaris 280 TankTrax (W7220015) and also fits the Polaris Vac-Sweep 280 and 180 pressure-side pool cleaners. This part occupies position 15 in the official Fluidra exploded-view diagram for the Polaris 280 / 280 TankTrax, making identification straightforward during servicing.

Por qué lo genuino importa

Genuine Polaris lock washers are manufactured to the same specification as the original factory parts, ensuring a precise fit on the axle block screws. Aftermarket alternatives may differ in thickness or material, leading to premature wear or loosening of the axle assembly. As small components subject to pool-chemical exposure and mechanical stress, these washers can deteriorate or be lost over time – keeping genuine spares readily available prevents avoidable downtime.

Instalación

Each washer slides onto the 10-32 x 7/8″ pan-head screws (W7230228) before they are fastened into the axle block kit. Ensure all seven mounting positions are fitted with a washer and that screws are tightened to the torque specified in your Polaris 280 owner’s manual. No special tools are required, though careful handling of these small parts is advised during assembly.
