Product details
This is the Hayward ECX176865 retainer nut, a 5/16 inch-18 nut used in the Hayward Micro-Clear DE filters. It is the genuine Hayward part.
Where it is used
The nut is listed for the Micro-Clear DE filters, including the stainless steel versions, and it also appears in the Pro-Grid DE filter parts listings for models DE2420, DE3620, DE4820, DE6020 and DE7220. If you are working from a parts breakdown, match the ECX176865 number rather than the description, since a filter carries more than one nut.
Small hardware, real job
Retainer hardware inside a DE filter lives in warm, chlorinated, DE laden water. Threads corrode, nuts strip, and a nut that no longer holds lets the assembly move. Once the internals shift, the grids no longer seat the way they should and DE starts coming back through the returns. It is a cheap part to replace while the filter is already open, and an annoying reason to open it again if it is skipped.
