Zodiac MX8 Bearing, Wheel and Engine In stock$2101
Quick overview
- Genuine Zodiac The factory bearing, part number R0527000, not an aftermarket copy.
- Two places, one part Zodiac uses the same bearing at the wheel and at the engine on the MX8.
- For the MX8 The suction side cleaner this bearing was made for.
- A wear item Bearings run in dirty water all season, and a dragging or noisy wheel usually starts here.

Product details
The Zodiac R0527000 is the genuine bearing for the MX8 suction pool cleaner. Zodiac uses it in two places on the cleaner, at the wheel and at the engine, so the same part number covers either repair.
Why bearings fail
The MX8 spends its life dragging itself across a pool floor in water carrying sand and grit. Bearings take that load hour after hour, and when one starts to bind the wheel stops turning freely and the engine has to work against it. The cleaner slows, covers less ground, and often gets blamed on suction before anyone checks the running gear.
Checking before you order
Turn each wheel by hand with the cleaner out of the water. A good bearing spins smoothly and quietly. One that feels gritty, notchy or stiff is done. Since every bearing on the cleaner has seen the same hours, it is worth inspecting the rest while the cleaner is open rather than doing the job twice.
