Product details

The Hayward GLX-CELL-UNION is a 2 inch union supplied as the nut and the tail piece.

Why a union is there

Unions are what make pool equipment serviceable. Without one, taking a piece of equipment out of the line means cutting pipe and gluing it back afterwards. With one, the nut backs off and the component lifts out. That convenience is worth keeping in good order.

When to replace it

Union nuts are a known wear point. Years of sun, seasonal expansion and over tightening leave hairline cracks that open under pressure, and a scored tail piece face will weep no matter how hard the nut is pulled up. Replacing the pair is the fix; more torque is not.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

What comes in this listing?
The union nut and the tail piece. It is the two part union set rather than the nut alone.
What size is it?
2 inch.
Is it a genuine Hayward part?
Yes. It is Hayward part number GLX-CELL-UNION.
Why replace a union rather than just tighten it?
A union seals by squeezing a seal between two faces. Once the nut is cracked or the tail piece face is scored, more torque only makes the leak worse and risks splitting the nut completely.
