Product Overview
The Hayward VacLock Kit, Black, Free Rotation (W400BBKP) is a safety wall fitting with a 1-1/2" MPT body for a dedicated suction (vacuum) line. It holds the suction cleaner hose in place and closes the line when the cleaner is not connected.
The black finish suits dark-finish pools, and the free-rotation design lets the hose turn without twisting.
Ideal For
Pools with a dedicated vacuum/suction cleaner line
Suction-side automatic cleaners such as the Hayward Navigator
Replacing an older vacuum wall fitting
Dark-finish pools
Key Features
1-1/2" MPT threaded body

Benefits
Closing the open suction port when the cleaner is disconnected reduces entrapment risk at the vacuum line.
A locked hose connection keeps a suction cleaner from pulling loose during operation.
