Product details

The Hayward SPX1485A is the genuine ball end replacement union fitting. It is the OEM part, supplied on its own as the ball end half of the union.

What a ball end union does

A ball end union seals on a rounded face rather than a flat one. That shape lets the joint take a small amount of misalignment between the two pipes without leaking, which is why it turns up on equipment that has to be dropped into a plumbing run that was never perfectly square.

When to replace it

Union halves crack at the thread or at the shoulder, usually after being over tightened with a wrench when hand tight and a fresh gasket would have done the job. Replacing the fitting is far less work than cutting the glued pipe out and rebuilding the run.

Before you order

Hayward uses several union sizes across its pumps, filters and skimmers, and the part numbers in this family run close together. Compare the fitting you are removing against the part number before ordering.

Questions and answers

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

Is this a genuine Hayward part?
Yes. It is the Hayward OEM ball end union fitting, part number SPX1485A.
What is in the box?
The ball end union fitting. Order any nut, gasket or o-ring you also need separately.
Why is it called a ball end?
The sealing face is rounded rather than flat, which lets the union tolerate a small amount of misalignment in the pipe run.
How do I know it is the right one?
Compare it against the fitting you are removing. Hayward uses more than one union size across its equipment, and the part numbers are close enough that they are easy to confuse.
