They corrode, they gall, and eventually a nut rounds off or a bolt snaps while it is being torqued. When that happens the filter cannot be closed properly, and no gasket will hold pressure without even clamping force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReplace the bolt, nut and washer together rather than reusing an old nut on a new bolt. One set covers one bolt position, so count the positions on your filter and order accordingly. It is listed for the Hayward S200 and S240 side mount sand filters and also appears in Hayward Perflex DE filter parts listings, so match the hardware on the filter in front of you before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48628754514132,"sku":"HAY-051-1642","price":14.36,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_a2781339-856b-42a4-9c06-e9538a8c1ccc.jpg?v=1788749765","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/filter-tank-bolt-set","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
