Hayward WGX1048E 8-Inch White Cover Replacement for Hayward Suction and Dual Suction Outlet

I was tired of having to free up my stuck pool vacuum. My 25 year old drain covers were badly broken and the edge of the vacuum kept getting stuck. More importantly, chunks of plastic had broken off my old covers and I was worried someone would cut a toe or get one stuck in there. These were a perfect replacement for my Hayward SP1048 drain covers. At first, I didn’t even know the part number until I did a web search for Hayward drain covers and the picture popped up of my originals with the part number. I then searched the part here and these popped up. I bought two to replace the original ones after seeing reviews with pics like mine. Took a few dives with my goggles to unscrew the old ones and install 2 of these. I used the original screws, but these new ones come with screws if you need them. The screw hole spacing is an exact match and they fit perfectly. These are OEM and made from sturdy plastic. I like how these have more and smaller holes compared to the old - definitely an upgrade without the upgrade price tag. I’m perfectly happy with these and the value for the price. Now I don’t need to worry about cutting my toe anymore!

Great buy! It fit perfectly on my pool drain. The extra screws were perfect in length. It was a lot easier to install than I expected. I had my liner replaced a few years ago and the liner replacement people didn't put the proper length screws (I think they lost them and had to substitute) back in the drain cover and after two years, one came out and the cover eventually broke from cleaning etc.(being moved around). Mine was old and this one fit perfectly and the design is a lot better, smaller holes and more of them. I'm very happy with it. Oh, and half the price of pool store if they could get one?

I have a 90s era pool with Hayward components. The drain covers in the spa portion of the pool slowly broke over time. These are a perfect fit to replace the old, very different looking ones. I left the old ones in the picture so you can see if it looks like what you have. Even the screws that came with it fit the old system.

got the ol scuba gear on and down i went to the deep end, replaced both no issues, polaris cleaner rolls right over them w/no issues

Fit in perfectly to the original one that we had. The original laid flat on the ground but due to the size of this one, it bulged out. Otherwise, it fits in well and does it’s job!

Perfect fit & easy install !

Great quality. Looks very durable. Fits perfectly. Highly recommended.

After 5 years of having the wrong ones in our pool and the builder of the pool doing a poor job of finishing the job correctly, we finally figured out the right covers and screws for our inground pool.
