Product details

The Pentair R181086 is a blue and white safety rope float sized for 3/4 inch pool rope. It is a 5 by 9 inch oval.

What it is for

A safety rope marks where the floor drops away from the shallow end. The rope carries the message and the floats are what make it visible and keep it at the surface. The blue and white pattern stands out against the water from the deck and from in the pool, which is the whole point of the color break.

Ordering

Floats and rope are bought separately. Measure the width of the span, decide on your spacing, and order enough floats to hold the line up and keep it clearly visible from end to end. Worn or missing floats let a rope sag under the surface, where nobody sees it until they are already past it.
