Product Overview
The Pentair Turbine Bearings 2-Pack | EC-60 is a genuine Pentair replacement bearing set designed to restore smooth wheel and turbine movement on compatible Pentair automatic pool cleaners.
These bearings help reduce friction inside the cleaner’s moving assembly, allowing the wheels and turbine-driven components to rotate more freely. When bearings become worn, seized, noisy, or rough, the cleaner may drag, move unevenly, lose traction, or stop tracking properly across the pool surface.
This 2-pack is commonly used for maintenance and repair on compatible Pentair / Kreepy Krauly / Letro pressure-side cleaners, including select Legend, Legend II, and Legend Platinum models.
Ideal For
- Pentair automatic pool cleaner repairs
- Kreepy Krauly Legend cleaner maintenance
- Legend 4-Wheel cleaner models
- Legend 3-Wheel cleaner models
- Legend II LX2000 cleaner models
- Legend Platinum cleaner models
- Replacing worn or seized wheel bearings
- Restoring smoother cleaner movement
- Reducing cleaner drag and friction
- Improving cleaner traction and tracking
- Pool service technicians
- Routine pressure-side cleaner maintenance

Benefits
The Pentair EC-60 bearing set helps keep compatible automatic pool cleaners moving properly. When wheel or turbine bearings wear out, the cleaner can become noisy, slow, stuck, or inconsistent. Replacing worn bearings helps reduce resistance and allows the cleaner to travel more smoothly through the pool.
This 2-pack is ideal for targeted repairs or as part of a larger cleaner rebuild. Keeping bearings in good condition can help extend the life of wheels, turbine parts, gears, and drive components.
For pool professionals, the EC-60 is a simple replacement item that can help restore cleaner performance during routine service.

Compatibility Notes
The Pentair EC-60 bearing 2-pack is designed for compatible Pentair / Letro / Kreepy Krauly automatic pool cleaners.
Common compatibility references include:
- Pentair Legend 4-Wheel cleaners
- Pentair Legend 3-Wheel cleaners
- Kreepy Krauly Legend cleaners
- Kreepy Krauly Legend II LX2000 cleaners
- Pentair Legend Platinum cleaners
- Compatible cleaner rebuild applications requiring part EC-60 / EC60
Always confirm the cleaner model and parts diagram before ordering. This bearing set is not universal for every Pentair, Kreepy Krauly, Polaris, Hayward, or suction-side cleaner.
Installation Notes
Turn off the booster pump and pool circulation system before servicing the cleaner. Remove the cleaner from the pool and inspect the wheel assembly, turbine assembly, axles, tires, gears, and bearings before replacement.
Replace worn bearings in pairs where applicable to help maintain smooth and balanced movement. After installation, verify that wheels and moving components rotate freely before returning the cleaner to the pool.
If the cleaner still tracks poorly after bearing replacement, inspect tires, wheels, gears, thrust jet position, backup valve, feed hose, wall fitting, and booster pump flow.
