Quick Product Summary
The Polaris A49 OEM Factory Tune-Up Kit is a genuine Polaris rebuild kit designed for Polaris 180 and Polaris 280 pressure-side pool cleaners. This kit includes the major wear components commonly replaced during a full cleaner refresh, including wheels, tires, axles, bearings, washers, turbine parts, swing axle kit, and drive shaft assembly. Use this kit when your Polaris cleaner has slow movement, worn tires, poor traction, weak drive performance, or multiple aging components that need to be replaced together. Polaris identifies the A49 kit for authentic Polaris 280, TR28P, and 180 pressure-side Vac-Sweep pool cleaners.
Best For
- Polaris 180 pressure-side pool cleaners
- Polaris 280 pressure-side pool cleaners
- Polaris TR28P pressure-side pool cleaners, when verified by parts diagram
- Full cleaner rebuilds and major tune-ups
- Replacing multiple worn drive and wheel components at once
- Pool owners who want genuine OEM Polaris parts instead of aftermarket substitutes
Why This Matters
- Worn tires can reduce traction and cause poor cleaner movement
- Worn bearings can affect wheel spin and drive performance
- Worn axles and drive parts can cause inconsistent movement or cleaner stalling
- Replacing only one part may not solve performance issues when several components are worn
- A complete factory tune-up kit helps refresh the cleaner as a system
- OEM Polaris parts help maintain the intended fit, function, and cleaner performance
Common Signs You Need This / Use This When
- Use this kit when your Polaris 180 or 280 is moving slowly or inconsistently
- Use this kit when the cleaner wheels, tires, or bearings show visible wear
- Use this kit when the cleaner struggles with traction or coverage
- Use this kit when multiple drive components are worn and need to be replaced together
- Use this kit when your cleaner needs a complete factory-style tune-up instead of one small repair
- Use this kit when your parts diagram calls for Polaris A49

Compatibility / Fitment Notes
The Polaris A49 Factory Tune-Up Kit is built for authentic Polaris 180 and Polaris 280 pressure-side pool cleaners. Polaris also lists the A49 kit as intended for common wear-part replacement on Polaris 280, TR28P, and 180 pressure-side cleaners.
Before ordering, confirm your cleaner model and compare the A49 kit contents to your cleaner’s parts diagram. This kit is not intended for every Polaris cleaner model. Do not assume fitment for Polaris 360, 380, 3900 Sport, Quattro, robotic cleaners, or suction-side cleaners unless a parts diagram specifically calls for the A49 kit.
Installation / Use Notes
Turn off the booster pump and pool equipment before removing the cleaner from the pool for service. This kit includes multiple internal and external cleaner parts, so it is best used when performing a full cleaner tune-up rather than replacing only one small component.
Compare each removed part to the matching replacement before installation. If the cleaner still has poor movement after the tune-up, inspect hose pressure, backup valve operation, feed hose condition, wheel RPM, jets, debris bag, and cleaner body components.
Buy with Confidence
Benchmark Pool Supply helps customers choose the correct Polaris replacement parts using clear part numbers, model fitment, and practical pool-cleaner knowledge. A complete tune-up kit like the Polaris A49 can save time when multiple wear parts are aging together, but model matching is still important. We help pool owners and service professionals identify the right OEM kit so they can avoid mismatched parts and get their cleaner operating properly again.
