Product details
The Pentair R36033 is the retainer bar for the R211100 Vac-Mate, the multifunction vacuum skimmer attachment used on pools and spas. It is the genuine Pentair replacement part.
What it does
The retainer bar is the clamping piece that holds the Vac-Mate assembly together in use. It carries the load every time the unit is tightened down, so it is one of the first pieces to crack or strip on a tool that gets daily service work.
Before you order
The source lists this part both as the retainer bar and as the long retainer bar. If your Vac-Mate uses more than one bar length, measure the broken piece against the assembly before ordering so you get the right one first time.
