Benefits
The Hayward SPX4000FG helps restore a proper seal at the pump or equipment drain port. A worn, cracked, missing, or over-tightened drain plug can cause slow leaks, air intrusion, or water loss around the equipment pad.
Replacing the plug and gasket together helps create a better seal and reduces the chance of reusing a flattened or damaged gasket. This is a useful part to keep on hand for pool openings, closings, and pump service repairs.
