Product details

The Waterway 400-1417DB is a gray eyeball return fitting with a 3/4 inch opening on a 1-1/2 inch male threaded body. It threads into the wall return and directs the water coming back from the equipment pad.

What the sizes do

The 1-1/2 inch MPT is simply how the fitting mounts. The 3/4 inch figure is the part that changes how the pool behaves: narrowing the outlet raises the speed of the water leaving it, so the stream carries further into the pool and does more to keep the surface turning over instead of stalling near the wall.

When to replace one

Eyeballs live in sun and sanitizer and eventually go brittle. A cracked flange or a ball that no longer holds its position lets the return wander, and the pool ends up with dead corners. Swapping the fitting is a hand job at the wall, no tools past a firm grip.

Questions and answers

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

What do the two sizes mean?
The 3/4 inch is the opening through the eyeball itself. The 1-1/2 inch MPT is the male thread on the body that screws into the wall fitting.
What color is it?
Gray.
Why choose a 3/4 inch eyeball?
A smaller opening speeds up the water leaving the return, which throws the stream further and helps keep the surface moving.
Can I aim the return with it?
Yes. The ball swivels in its housing, so the stream can be angled across the surface or downward as needed.
