Polaris Pool Cleaner Parts

Keep Your Polaris Pool Cleaner Running Like New with Genuine Replacement Parts

Polaris® pressure-side pool cleaners are among the most trusted automatic cleaners in the industry. Known for their durability, powerful water-driven cleaning action, and wide pool coverage, models like the Polaris 280, 360, 380, TR28P, and 3900 Sport keep pools consistently clean when properly maintained.

Like any mechanical pool equipment, Polaris cleaners rely on wear components that degrade over time. Debris bags tear, belts stretch, wheels lose traction, and hoses eventually crack or leak. Replacing worn parts promptly is essential to maintaining proper movement, suction efficiency, and full pool coverage.

At Benchmark Pool Supply, we stock a complete selection of Polaris pool cleaner replacement parts—from individual O-rings and hoses to full rebuild and tune-up kits—so you can restore performance without replacing the entire cleaner.

Why Replacing Polaris Cleaner Parts Matters

Routine replacement of worn Polaris parts helps your cleaner operate efficiently while preventing larger, more expensive failures. Proper maintenance delivers measurable benefits:

• Improved cleaning performance and consistent debris pickup

• Extended lifespan of internal components and drive systems

• Reduced downtime caused by breakdowns or poor movement

• Reliable wall climbing, navigation, and full pool coverage

Replacing small wear items early often prevents damage to motors, gear assemblies, and pressure systems.

Popular Polaris Pool Cleaner Replacement Parts

Debris Bags

Polaris debris bags collect leaves, dirt, sand, and fine particles during each cleaning cycle. Popular options include the Polaris K13 zipper debris bag, Polaris K16 all-purpose debris bag, and Polaris K14 debris bag, depending on your cleaner model and debris conditions. Torn or stretched bags should be replaced promptly to maintain suction and debris retention.

Sweep Hoses & Tail Scrubbers

Sweep hoses direct high-pressure water to agitate debris, while tail scrubbers prevent dirt from settling on steps and walls. If the tail is not sweeping properly, replace worn components like the Polaris B5 sweep hose, Polaris sweep hose scrubber, or Polaris Tail Sweep PRO upgrade to improve wall coverage and debris movement.

Belts, Wheels & Bearings

These components allow the cleaner to move smoothly across pool surfaces. Worn belts, tires, wheels, or bearings can cause stalling, uneven movement, or poor coverage patterns. Common replacement parts include the Polaris 360/380 belt kit, Polaris C10 MaxTrax tire, Polaris C6 large wheel, and Polaris wheel bearing.

Backup Valves

Backup valves periodically reverse the cleaner’s direction to prevent it from getting stuck in corners or tight areas. A failing valve often results in repeated hang-ups or limited pool coverage. For Polaris 280 and 380 cleaners, the Polaris G52 backup valve is one of the most common replacement parts, while the Polaris G54 case kit and Polaris G57 valve collar help repair the backup valve assembly.

Feed Hose Kits & Hose Floats

Feed hoses deliver pressurized water from the booster pump to the cleaner. Cracked hose sections, worn swivels, or missing floats reduce water flow, balance, and maneuverability. Common hose-related replacement parts include the Polaris D45 10 ft feed hose, Polaris D50 leader hose, Polaris D10 feed hose float, and Polaris D20 hose swivel.

Tune-Up & Rebuild Kits

Polaris tune-up kits include critical wear components such as belts, bearings, seals, and O-rings. The Polaris A49 factory tune-up kit is ideal for restoring older Polaris 180 and 280 cleaners to near-original performance without replacing the entire unit.

Polaris Models We Support

Our Polaris replacement parts are compatible with the most popular pressure-side cleaners, including:

• Polaris 280 – Industry-standard cleaner known for reliability

Each Polaris model uses specific components, so selecting the correct replacement part is critical for proper operation.

Signs It’s Time to Replace Polaris Cleaner Parts

If your Polaris cleaner isn’t performing as expected, worn parts are often the cause:

• Cleaner isn’t moving or stalls frequently → belts, wheels, or bearings may be worn

• Cleaner keeps getting stuck → backup valve or hose swivels may be failing

• Debris bag isn’t collecting dirt → bag may be torn or stretched

• Sweep hose not spraying properly → tail scrubber or internal hose may be clogged

• Water leaking from hoses → feed hose sections or floats may need replacement

Addressing these issues early prevents more serious mechanical damage.
