Product details
The Pentair R172052 is the cap wrench for the Rainbow automatic chlorinator feeders. It is listed for models 300, 302, 300-19, 300-29, 300-29X, 320 and 322.
What it is for
Feeder lids are tightened by hand and then sit in the sun, in chlorine, for a season. When it is time to refill, the cap will not budge. The wrench fits the lid and lets you turn it evenly, which is the difference between opening the feeder and cracking it.
Worth keeping on the shelf
This is an inexpensive tool that is only ever needed at an inconvenient moment. If you run a Rainbow feeder, it belongs in the equipment cabinet next to the tablets. Clean the lid threads while the feeder is open and the next one will come off more easily.
