Small components play an outsized role in pressure-side pool cleaner performance, and the sweep hose clamp is one of them. If the sweep hose is loose, leaking, or disconnected, water pressure is lost and the cleaner’s tail sweep can no longer agitate debris properly. The result is poor debris suspension, uneven cleaning, and reduced overall efficiency.

The Polaris B15 Sweep Hose Clamp is a genuine OEM replacement designed to securely fasten the sweep hose to the cleaner body on Polaris 180, 280, and 380 pressure-side pool cleaners. It provides a tight, reliable hold that prevents leaks and keeps water flow directed where it belongs—through the sweep hose for proper tail motion.

This is a Polaris-specific clamp engineered for correct fit and long-term durability, not a generic hardware substitute.

Why the Sweep Hose Clamp Matters

The sweep hose relies on consistent pressure to whip debris off steps, corners, and hard-to-reach areas. Even a slight loss of pressure at the connection point can dramatically reduce effectiveness.

A worn or missing clamp can cause:

• Weak or non-functional tail sweep

• Water spraying or leaking at the hose connection

• Reduced debris agitation

• Inconsistent cleaner performance

Replacing the clamp restores proper pressure delivery and helps the cleaner function as designed.

Designed for Polaris Pressure-Side Cleaners

The Polaris B15 clamp is manufactured to match the diameter and connection geometry of Polaris sweep hoses and cleaner bodies. Proper fit ensures even compression without damaging the hose or restricting water flow.

Using the correct OEM clamp prevents slippage while allowing easy removal during routine maintenance.

Built for Pool Environment Conditions

Polaris OEM clamps are designed for continuous outdoor exposure, resisting corrosion, chlorine, and constant water pressure. This clamp maintains its grip over time, helping avoid repeat issues caused by loosening or deformation.

For service professionals, it’s a quick, dependable fix. For pool owners, it’s an inexpensive part that protects cleaner performance.

When to Replace the Polaris B15 Sweep Hose Clamp

This clamp should be replaced when:

• The sweep hose feels loose at the connection

• Water leaks or sprays from the hose base

• The tail sweep stops moving effectively

• The original clamp is cracked, stretched, or missing

• Performing routine cleaner maintenance

Replacing the clamp takes minutes and often immediately restores sweep performance.

Practical Maintenance Part for Pool Owners and Service Techs

For pool owners, replacing a worn clamp helps keep debris moving toward the main cleaner intake. For service technicians, the B15 clamp is a standard service item that resolves tail sweep complaints quickly without major disassembly.
