Product details

The Hayward ECX5000G is the genuine diaphragm gasket for the Perflex EC-50C and EC-40C DE filters. It is molded rubber and it is the factory part, not an aftermarket copy.

Why gaskets fail

Rubber in a filter lives between heat, chlorine and pressure cycles. Over time it hardens, takes a permanent set in the shape of the groove it sits in, and eventually splits. None of that shows until the filter is opened, which is why a gasket at this joint is usually replaced on sight rather than inspected and reused.

Worth doing once

Opening a Perflex to this depth is most of the job. The gasket itself costs very little against the time involved, so fitting a new one while the filter is already apart avoids doing the same work again a season later.

Questions and answers

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

Which filters does this gasket fit?
The Hayward Perflex EC-50C and EC-40C DE filters.
What is it made of?
Rubber. It is the molded rubber diaphragm gasket Hayward supplies for these filters.
Is it a genuine Hayward part?
Yes. It is the Hayward OEM gasket, part number ECX5000G.
How do I know the gasket needs replacing?
If it has gone hard, taken a permanent flat set, or shows splits or nicks along the sealing face, replace it. Rubber that no longer springs back will not seal reliably once the filter is put back under pressure.
