Pentair K12896 Pleated Seal Kit
Part Number: K12896
Description
A premium replacement pleated seal kit designed for use with select Pentair Kreepy Krauly suction-side automatic pool cleaners. This kit restores optimal suction, improves wall-climb performance and ensures efficient debris pickup across pool surfaces.
Compatibility & Fitment
- Designed for many Kreepy Krauly automatic pool cleaners where the original seal has worn, cracked or reduced the cleaner’s performance.
- Use when the cleaner no longer climbs the pool walls effectively, loses suction, or skips areas repeatedly.
- Direct replacement for systems specifying part number K12896.
Features & Specifications
- Pleated seal design provides high contact patch and improved traction across vinyl, plaster, tile and fiberglass pool surfaces.
- Durable construction formulated for pool water environments, chemical exposure and frequent use.
- Quick-install format allows for fast replacement and return to service.
Installation Notes
Turn off the pool pump and isolate suction before servicing. Remove the cleaner from the pool, detach the existing seal, clean the groove or mounting surface, and install the new K12896 seal kit, ensuring proper seating. Re-assemble the cleaner, prime and return to circulation, then verify the cleaner’s movement, wall climb and suction performance.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect the cleaner’s seal annually or sooner in high-use or high-debris environments. Replace if the cleaning path becomes erratic, the cleaner fails to climb, or suction loss occurs despite normal maintenance. A refreshed seal helps maintain efficient cleaning and extends the life of the machine.
