Product details
Polaris 6-411-00 is the genuine piston assembly for the Polaris 160 and 165 pool cleaners. It is the factory part, supplied complete in plastic to the original specification.
What the piston does
The piston is at the heart of how these cleaners move. It cycles constantly whenever the cleaner is running, which makes it a wear item rather than a part you expect to keep forever. As it wears, the cleaner starts to hesitate, drift off its pattern or stall in a corner, and owners often chase the hose or the booster pump before they get to it.
Before you order
Check that flow to the cleaner is healthy first, since a kinked hose or a weak booster can produce the same symptoms. If flow is good and the cleaner still will not cycle properly, the piston assembly is the part to change.
