It fits at the bulkhead area where internal plumbing aligns through the filter tank wall. This spacer supports proper positioning of the bulkhead components during assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy This Part Matters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e If the bulkhead assembly is not spaced correctly, seals may not seat properly and leaks can develop at the tank wall. Misalignment can also stress fittings and make the valve or plumbing harder to tighten evenly. Replacing a missing or damaged spacer helps restore proper fit and sealing. This is a small part that can prevent repeat bulkhead leaks.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features and Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eManufacturer part number: SX360E\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBulkhead spacer for compatible Hayward sand filters\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSupports proper alignment of bulkhead assembly components\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eUsed at the filter tank wall bulkhead connection\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eService replacement part for bulkhead rebuilds\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation and Fitment Guidance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Depressurize the filter before disassembly and note the orientation of existing bulkhead components.
