{"product_id":"bearing-wheel-engine","title":"Zodiac MX8 Bearing, Wheel and Engine","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy bearings fail\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChecking before you order\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTurn 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zodiac","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48626990448852,"sku":"BAR-201-7010","price":21.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_f5e1cf8c-1859-4400-bd60-7b9023562a4d.jpg?v=1788718803","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/bearing-wheel-engine","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
