Product details

The Pentair 154527Z is the plastic wrench for the 8-1/2 in. closure on Triton C and Triton C-3 sand filters. It is the genuine Pentair tool.

Why a dedicated tool

Filter lids seal tight and season in place, and the usual improvisations, a screwdriver as a lever or a pipe wrench across the lugs, crack the lid or scar the tank. This wrench is shaped to the closure so the force spreads across the lugs instead of concentrating on one of them. It is made from corrosion resistant plastic, which will not mark the housing.

When you reach for it

Any job that means getting inside the tank: a sand change, an o-ring replacement, a look at the laterals, or an inspection after a pressure problem. Pentair also lists this wrench as compatible with select pump trap lids, so it can earn its place beyond the filter.

Before you turn it

Make sure the system is off and the tank is fully depressurized with the air relief open. A tank still holding pressure will not give up its lid, and forcing it is how lids get broken.

Questions and answers

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

Which lids does it fit?
The 8-1/2 in. closure used on Pentair Triton C and Triton C-3 sand filters. Pentair also lists it as compatible with select pump trap lids.
Why use a plastic wrench instead of a strap wrench?
The plastic tool is shaped to the lid, so it spreads the load and does not gouge or crack the housing the way a metal tool or a screwdriver used as a lever will.
Is it a genuine Pentair tool?
Yes. Pentair part 154527Z.
My lid will not budge, what now?
A lid left untouched for a season often needs the wrench plus patience. Do not add a cheater bar; check that the tank is fully depressurized and the air relief is open first, since a pressurized tank will not release its lid.
