Description

A replacement strainer basket designed for use in Hayward Max-Flo XL and Max-Flo VS pump models, helping protect the pump by capturing leaves, debris and foreign particles before they enter the wet-end.

Compatibility & Fitment

Fits Hayward Max-Flo XL (SP2300X series) and Max-Flo VS (SP2300VSP series) pool pumps.
Use when the original basket is cracked, warped, missing ribs or its capacity has reduced flow efficiency.
Direct swap-in for pumps that reference the SPX2300M part number in their parts breakdown.

Features & Specifications

Durable polymer construction designed for pool water exposure and extended service life.
Large capacity basket reduces clogging and supports consistent flow through the pump.
Easy to remove and clean — designed for quick service access.

Installation Notes

Turn off the pool pump and relieve system pressure. Remove the pump cover, extract the old basket, rinse and clean the pump housing if needed, insert the new SPX2300M basket ensuring proper orientation, replace the cover and restore circulation. Check initial performance to confirm unrestricted flow.

Maintenance Tip

Clean the basket regularly—at least once a season or more if debris load is heavy. Inspect the basket for cracks, broken ribs or warping and replace immediately if any damage is observed to protect your pool pump and maintain efficient operation.
