Zodiac Twist Lock Hose – 1 Meter (1 Section) | R0527800
Genuine Zodiac Replacement Hose for Perfect Cleaner Performance
Keep your pool cleaner running at peak efficiency with the Zodiac Twist Lock Hose (R0527800)—a 1-meter replacement hose section designed for precision fit, reliable suction, and superior flexibility.
Made by Zodiac®, this genuine OEM part is compatible with many Zodiac suction-side pool cleaners, including models like the MX6, MX8, and T5 Duo. Whether you’re replacing a damaged section or extending your existing cleaner hose, this durable, easy-to-install segment maintains the airtight seal your system depends on for powerful, uninterrupted cleaning.
Engineered for Strong, Leak-Free Connections
The Zodiac Twist Lock Hose uses a patented twist-lock connection system that creates a secure, watertight seal between hose sections. This design eliminates suction loss caused by loose fittings and air leaks—ensuring your cleaner runs with full vacuum power from the pump to the head.
Unlike standard slip-fit hoses, the R0527800 locks with a simple quarter turn, preventing disconnections during operation and simplifying installation for both professionals and DIY pool owners.
1-Meter Modular Design for Custom Configurations
Each R0527800 hose section measures 1 meter (approximately 39 inches), making it easy to customize your pool cleaner hose length for the ideal reach and suction performance.
This modular design allows you to:
-
Replace only the damaged sections instead of the entire hose.
-
Add extra sections to accommodate larger pools.
-
Fine-tune hose length for optimal cleaner tracking and maneuverability.
For best results, ensure each replacement section matches your existing Zodiac Twist Lock hose style for a perfect seal.
Built from Heavy-Duty, UV-Stabilized Material
The Zodiac R0527800 hose is constructed from high-strength, UV-resistant polymer that resists cracking, fading, and degradation caused by sunlight, chlorine, and pool chemicals.
Its corrugated outer layer provides flexibility and durability, while the smooth internal bore allows efficient water flow with minimal resistance. The result is better cleaner movement, consistent suction, and extended equipment life.
Compatible with Zodiac MX and T-Series Cleaners
This genuine Zodiac replacement hose is compatible with multiple Zodiac suction cleaners, including:
-
MX6
-
MX8 / MX8 Elite
-
T5 Duo
-
T3
-

If your cleaner uses the Zodiac Twist Lock connection, this R0527800 hose section is the correct OEM replacement part.
✅ Tip: Zodiac hoses are color-coded (usually blue or gray) to match specific cleaner series. Always confirm your model and color match before ordering additional sections.

Why Choose Genuine Zodiac Parts
Using genuine Zodiac OEM components ensures proper performance, warranty protection, and safety for your pool system. Each Zodiac replacement part is tested to maintain the precision and reliability of the original cleaner design.
Generic hoses may look similar, but they often fail to create the same airtight twist-lock seal—reducing suction and causing your cleaner to lose mobility or stop mid-cycle. With Zodiac R0527800, you’re getting the exact fit and function the manufacturer intended.
