Product details
This is the Swimline HydroTools skimmer basket, style 8928, the replacement basket for standard Olympic above ground skimmers. It measures 6-1/8 inches across the top, 4-1/8 inches across the bottom and 2-3/4 inches tall.
Check the fit first
Skimmer baskets are not interchangeable across brands, and the same skimmer body can change size between model years. Pull your old basket and compare all three dimensions before you order, since a basket that is too tall will not let the lid sit down and one that is too narrow will float and let debris slip past the rim.
Why it is worth replacing early
The basket is the last thing standing between leaves and your pump. Once the weave splits, debris goes straight to the pump strainer and, from there, to the impeller. A cracked basket is a few dollars to fix and expensive to ignore.
