Zodiac W81700 Baracuda Alpha 2 Diaphragm – Replacement Part

What This Part Is Used For
This diaphragm is installed inside compatible Zodiac Baracuda Alpha 2 suction pool cleaners. It creates the pulsing action that drives cleaner movement and debris intake.

Why This Part Matters
A worn diaphragm weakens suction and causes slow or erratic cleaner movement. Loss of pulse leads to missed debris and incomplete coverage. Replacing the diaphragm restores proper cleaner operation.
