Product details

This is the Baker Hydro faceplate gasket, part number 51B1047, for the Hydropak skimmer. It is the flat seal that sits between the skimmer faceplate and the pool wall.

The job it does

The faceplate clamps against the wall and the gasket is what actually makes that joint watertight. It is a part nobody thinks about until it fails, and when it does the water does not come out anywhere visible. It goes behind the wall, which is why a leak at the skimmer throat is one of the more frustrating things to track down.

Replace it on principle

Any time the faceplate comes off, put a new gasket in. The old one has spent years compressed to the shape of that joint and will not seal properly a second time. Tighten the faceplate screws evenly and in a cross pattern so the gasket compresses uniformly rather than pinching at one corner.

Questions and answers

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

Where does this gasket sit?

Between the skimmer faceplate and the pool wall, compressed by the faceplate screws when they are tightened down.

Which skimmer is it for?

It is listed as the faceplate gasket for the Baker Hydro Hydropak skimmer.

Can I reuse the old gasket?

Not reliably. A gasket that has been compressed for years has taken a permanent set and will not conform to the surfaces again. Replace it any time the faceplate comes off.

How do I know the gasket has failed?

Water tracking behind the skimmer, a wet spot in the ground on that side of the pool, or a water level that drops to the skimmer and then stops are all signs the seal at the faceplate is letting go.
