This is a genuine Zodiac replacement screw designed for use in Zodiac automatic pool cleaners and related pool equipment. The F0117000 is an M4x12mm Phillips flat head (countersunk) screw, a small but essential fastener used to secure body panels, drive components, and internal assemblies within Zodiac pool cleaning devices. Using the correct OEM fastener ensures a precise fit and maintains the structural integrity of the unit during operation.<\/p>\n
Flat head screws of this type sit flush with the surface of the component they fasten, which is critical in pool cleaners where protruding hardware could interfere with moving parts, impede water flow, or cause abrasion against pool surfaces. The Phillips #2 drive head is a standard cross-head drive, compatible with widely available screwdrivers and power tools, making replacement straightforward for both professional technicians and confident DIY pool owners.<\/p>\n
The screw follows the M4 metric thread standard with a 12mm length, making it a compact yet robust fastener suited to the plastic and light alloy housings typical of Zodiac pool cleaner construction. The flat head (countersunk) profile ensures the screw head sits level with or below the surrounding surface once fully driven, preventing interference with adjacent components. The Phillips #2 designation refers to the driver size required, ensuring proper torque transfer without cam-out during installation.<\/p>\n
This part is referenced in the Zodiac parts catalogue under SKU F0117000 and is identified as a body panel fastener, consistent with its use in securing external or semi-external casing components on Zodiac automatic pool cleaner models. Always verify compatibility with your specific Zodiac model by cross-referencing the official parts diagram or exploded view for your unit before ordering.<\/p>\n
This screw is intended as a direct replacement for worn, stripped, or lost fasteners in Zodiac automatic pool cleaners. It is particularly relevant during servicing or repair of body panels and drive shaft assemblies. Because it is a genuine Zodiac OEM part, it matches the original specification exactly, avoiding the fit and durability issues that can arise from using generic hardware store substitutes. If you are performing a full overhaul of your Zodiac cleaner or have identified a damaged fastener during routine maintenance, ordering this part ensures your repair meets the manufacturer’s original standard.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
