It is the genuine Hayward part, supplied with the laterals already fitted to the center pipe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTotal length is 28 in. The top pipe on its own measures 20-5\/8 in., and each lateral is 7-3\/16 in. long. Compare those against the old assembly before ordering, since Hayward uses different lateral assemblies across its tank sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen it is needed\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSand showing up on the pool floor after a backwash almost always means a cracked lateral. Because the laterals sit under the full sand bed, the tank has to be emptied to reach them, so most people replace the sand at the same time and start fresh.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48624918397140,"sku":"HAY-051-2221","price":146.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_842f378c-71ca-401c-a482-0afd65cda620.png?v=1788653379","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/lateral-assembly-w-center-pipe-s244t","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
