Polaris C66 Large Axle with Sand & Gravel Guard for 180/280 Pool Cleaners
Smooth wheel rotation and drivetrain protection are critical for pressure-side pool cleaners to move consistently and avoid internal wear. The Polaris C66 Large Axle with Sand & Gravel Guard is a genuine OEM replacement part designed to support the wheel assembly while protecting internal components from abrasive debris. When axles wear or debris enters the wheel hub area, cleaners may bind, slow down, or suffer premature drivetrain damage.
This large axle includes an integrated sand and gravel guard that helps block fine debris from entering sensitive moving parts. Replacing a worn or damaged axle helps restore proper wheel alignment, smooth rotation, and long-term reliability of the cleaner’s drive system.
The Polaris C66 is commonly replaced during wheel servicing, cleaner rebuilds, or when operating cleaners in pools with sand, gravel, or rough surfaces.
Supports Smooth Wheel Rotation and Alignment
The axle is a foundational component of the cleaner’s wheel assembly. If the axle becomes worn, bent, or damaged, wheels may wobble, bind, or rotate unevenly, affecting cleaner coverage.
The Polaris C66 large axle restores proper wheel alignment and rotation, allowing the cleaner to move smoothly across pool surfaces and maintain consistent cleaning patterns.
Integrated Sand & Gravel Guard for Added Protection
Pools with sandy debris or small gravel can cause accelerated wear inside wheel hubs and drivetrain components. The built-in sand and gravel guard helps prevent abrasive material from entering these areas.
This added protection reduces friction, minimizes internal wear, and helps extend the service life of wheels, bearings, and drive components.
Designed for Polaris Pressure-Side Cleaners
This axle is manufactured to Polaris OEM specifications for use with select pressure-side cleaner models. Proper sizing and fit are essential to ensure smooth wheel operation and avoid stress on surrounding components.
Using the correct axle helps preserve overall cleaner performance and prevents premature mechanical failures.
Why Replacing Axles Matters
Wheel support components directly impact cleaner movement.
Replacing worn axles helps:
-
Restore smooth wheel rotation
-
Prevent binding or uneven movement
-
Protect internal drive components
-
Extend the life of the cleaner
Routine axle replacement helps avoid larger drivetrain repairs.
