This is the genuine Fluidra replacement screw set designed to secure the lid on the Screw-Top UVE series pool sand filter. The screws hold the filter lid firmly in place during operation, maintaining a safe, pressure-tight closure. Replacing worn, corroded, or lost screws is a simple but essential step in keeping your filter running safely and leak-free.<\/p>\n
This screw set is specifically designed for the Fluidra Screw-Top UVE sand filter range, sold under the AstralPool brand. Always verify your filter model before ordering \u2014 this set is not a universal fit and is intended exclusively for the UVE screw-top filter assembly.<\/p>\n
Using genuine Fluidra hardware ensures the correct thread pitch, material grade, and dimensional tolerances for a secure, long-lasting fit. Aftermarket screws may not match the moulded thread in the filter lid, risking cross-threading, inadequate clamping force, or premature failure under pool operating pressures.<\/p>\n
Installation is straightforward: remove the old or damaged screws, clean the thread seats on the filter lid and body, and fit the new screws by hand before tightening evenly in a cross pattern. No specialist tools are required, though a torque-controlled approach is recommended to avoid over-tightening the plastic housing. Always depressurise and isolate the filter before servicing.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
