Pentair Kreepy Krauly Pleated Seal Kit – Blue Replacement Part K12896
Restore Suction & Performance to Your Kreepy Krauly Cleaner
The Pentair Kreepy Krauly Pleated Seal Kit (K12896) is a real OEM replacement. It helps your Kreepy Krauly pool cleaner work like new. The pleated seal is an important part of your cleaner. It helps keep proper suction, move easily across pool surfaces, and remove dirt and debris effectively.
Over time, seals can wear out or stiffen, leading to reduced suction, poor climbing ability, or incomplete cleaning coverage. Replacing your old seal with the Pentair K12896 pleated kit helps your pool cleaner work better and last longer.
