Product details
The Pentair 229600 is the metal gamma head tool for the G4, G4V and G4VHP. It is the genuine Pentair part.
What it is for
The gamma head is not meant to be turned with whatever is in the tool bag. It has a specific engagement, and a purpose made tool sits on it properly so the load goes where the design intends rather than into the corner of a thread or the edge of a plastic casing. Pliers, screwdrivers and improvised levers are how those heads get marked, distorted and eventually replaced.
A note on the description
This part is listed in some places as a removal tool and in others as an installation tool. It is the same Pentair part number, 229600, and it serves the gamma head in both directions. If the exact wording matters for your service procedure, check it against Pentair documentation for your model.
