Product details
This is the Astral replacement strainer basket, manufacturer part number 01150-0202. It is listed under Astral Sena above ground and in ground pump parts, and the same basket shows up as 011500202 AST and 01150-0202 AST.
What the basket does
Everything the skimmer misses ends up here. The strainer basket is the last filter between the pool and the impeller, and it catches leaves, hair and the grit that would otherwise jam or wear the wet end. It is a cheap part standing in front of an expensive one.
When to replace it
Baskets are consumable. Sun and pool chemistry make the plastic brittle, and eventually the mesh cracks or the rim distorts so it no longer seats. Once that happens the basket is passing debris straight through, whether or not it looks broken from above, so change it rather than keep using it.
