Product details

The Hayward SPX0125T is the strainer cover gasket for Max-Flo pumps in the 1800 and 2800 model families. It is the genuine Hayward part.

What it seals

The gasket sits between the clear strainer lid and the pump pot. Everything upstream of the impeller is under suction, so any gap at that lid pulls air rather than leaking water. That is why a bad lid gasket shows up as a pump that will not hold prime, or as a pot that never fills completely and runs half full of bubbles.

Fitting

Gaskets flatten, harden and crack with heat and chemical exposure, and a stretched one will not seal however hard the lid is tightened. Clean the seat properly before the new gasket goes on, use a thin film of pool lubricant to help it seat, and empty the strainer basket while the lid is off.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

Which pumps does it fit?
Hayward Max-Flo pumps in the 1800 and 2800 model families.
Is this a genuine Hayward part?
Yes. It is the Hayward OEM gasket, part number SPX0125T.
My pump keeps losing prime, is this the fix?
It is the first thing to check. If the strainer lid gasket is flattened, cracked or stretched it will pull air, and the pump will lose prime no matter how well the rest of the plumbing is sealed.
Should I put grease on it?
A thin film of pool lubricant helps the gasket seat and stops it sticking to the lid. Heavy grease attracts grit and makes it harder to keep clean.
