{"product_id":"handle-index-kit","title":"Hayward Handle \/ Index Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Hayward PSXVCA is the handle and index kit for PSV model diverter valves. It is a new OEM Hayward part, covering both the handle itself and the index that shows valve position.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat fails and why\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eValve handles live in full sun and take real force every time somebody switches between skimmer and main drain, or moves a return. Over years the plastic goes brittle and cracks where it clamps to the stem, and the printed index wears away long before that. Neither failure stops the valve working, but a valve with a loose handle and no readable index is one that gets turned to the wrong position sooner or later.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScope of the kit\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the handle and index. The valve key assembly is sold separately, so if the internal diverter is what is worn, that is a different part.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48633979633876,"sku":"HAY-561-1002","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_2548a1f7-db0d-4097-b517-ec40b86283db.jpg?v=1788823243","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/handle-index-kit","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
