Compatibility Notes
The Pentair 181010 clamp spring kit is intended for use with compatible Pentair FNS filter clamp assemblies. Before ordering, always confirm your filter model number and replacement part diagram to make sure 181010 is the correct spring kit for your specific filter.
Important: Filter clamp hardware is a safety-critical part of the pressure vessel. Do not substitute non-OEM bolts, springs, nuts, or hardware. If your clamp band itself is bent, cracked, badly corroded, or no longer seats correctly, the complete clamp assembly may need to be inspected or replaced.

- The clamp no longer tightens evenly
- The filter clamp hardware is difficult to thread or tension properly
