It is the genuine OEM part.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it does\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe connector is the quick connect point on the cleaner hose. It lets hose sections go together and come apart by hand, which is how the hose length gets set for a given pool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to replace it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConnectors are a wear item. Chlorine, sun and constant flexing eventually make the plastic brittle, and the grip that used to click and hold starts letting go. The symptom owners see is a hose section separating mid cycle, or a cleaner that stops covering the far end of the pool because the hose has come apart. Both are cured by a fresh connector.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zodiac","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48627004997844,"sku":"BAR-201-7006","price":16.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_77e421f5-93e1-4991-88e0-11e970d7a287.jpg?v=1788718974","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/mx8-mx6-quick-connector-blue","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
