Product details

Polaris C86 is the drive shaft assembly for the Polaris 180 and 280 pool cleaners, supplied complete with the turbine shaft tubes. It is the genuine OEM part in molded plastic.

Where it sits

The drive shaft is the link between the turbine and the wheels. Water spins the turbine, the shaft carries that motion down the drive train, and the wheels walk the cleaner across the pool. A worn or snapped shaft leaves you with a cleaner that has plenty of flow and no movement.

Doing the job

The tubes come with the assembly, so there is nothing extra to source for the shaft itself. Polaris also sells a 180/280 factory tune-up kit and the wheel bearings on their own, and both are worth looking at while the cleaner is open.

Questions and answers

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

Does this fit the 180 and the 280?
Yes. Polaris C86 is listed for both the Polaris 180 and the Polaris 280 cleaners.
Are the turbine shaft tubes included?
Yes, the tubes come with the assembly.
Is it a genuine Polaris part?
Yes, it is the OEM drive shaft assembly under part number C86.
The cleaner runs but the wheels barely turn. Is this the part?
The drive shaft carries turbine power through to the wheels, so a worn or broken shaft is one of the first things to check when a 180 or 280 has flow but no drive.
