Quick overview

  • Fits the Hayward® leaf canister Val-Pak builds this large basket to be compatible with the Hayward® canister.
  • 13-3/4 inch height Sized to fill the canister body, so debris is held rather than passed through.
  • 6-1/8 inch cap diameter Seats at the canister opening.
  • 4-1/2 inch base diameter Tapered profile matching the canister interior.
  • Catches leaves before the pump The canister basket is what keeps a heavy leaf load out of the pump strainer.
  • A cracked basket lets debris through Once the mesh splits, leaves go straight to the pump and the canister is doing nothing.

Product details

The Val-Pak V50-600 is a large basket compatible with the Hayward® leaf canister. It measures 13-3/4 inches in height, with a 6-1/8 inch cap diameter and a 4-1/2 inch base diameter.

What the canister basket does

A leaf canister goes in the vacuum line ahead of the pump so that heavy debris is caught before it ever reaches the strainer pot. The basket is the part doing that work. Everything else in the canister is a housing to hold it.

When to replace it

Baskets crack at the rim and split along the mesh, usually after being emptied hundreds of times and left in the sun between uses. A basket with a hole in it passes leaves through to the pump, which means shorter runs between strainer cleanings and, on a bad day, a clogged impeller. If you can see daylight through the side of the basket, replace it.

Questions and answers

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

What are the basket dimensions?
13-3/4 inches in height, 6-1/8 inches at the cap diameter and 4-1/2 inches at the base diameter.
Which canister does it fit?
The Hayward® leaf canister. This is the large basket.
Is this a Hayward® part?
No. It is a Val-Pak basket, part number V50-600, built to fit the Hayward® leaf canister.
Why does the basket matter?
The leaf canister sits ahead of the pump and its whole job is to hold debris. If the basket is split or missing, leaves pass straight through to the pump strainer and the canister is just a length of plumbing.
