Hayward SPX0710XD Valve Seat Gasket (5-Spoke “Spider” Style)
Part Number: SPX0710XD
Description
This genuine Hayward gasket is designed for use as the seat or “spider” gasket in 1½″ multiport valves — the five-spoke style version for select Vari-Flo and side-mount sand filter valves. It provides a reliable seal between the diverter rotor and the valve body to ensure correct flow positions and to prevent internal leaks.
Compatibility & Fitment
- Fits multiport valve models SP0710, SP0710X, SP0711, SP0712 (1½″ ports).
- Also used in some Hayward S200 series and Pro-Series side-mount sand filter valves that use the 1½″ Vari-Flo body.
Features & Specifications
- Five-spoke design tailored for the “X” body variant of the 1½″ Hayward multiport valves.
- Dimensions: approximately 5-5/16″ outside diameter (for 1½″ valve body), fits the groove for correct alignment.
- Material: molded elastomer suited for pool chemical environment, ensures proper sealing under pressure.
- OEM Hayward part — ensures proper fit, correct design and reliable performance rather than aftermarket generic substitutes.
Installation Notes
Turn off pump and relieve pressure in the system. Remove valve cover and rotor. Carefully remove the old gasket (which may be adhered). Clean and inspect the gasket groove for damage or debris. Apply a small amount of lubricant compatible with pool systems if recommended. Install the new SPX0710XD gasket in the groove, ensuring the spokes align correctly with the rotor ports. Reinstall rotor and cover, then cycle the valve through all positions and check for internal leaks or mis-routing of flow before returning to normal service.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect the multiport valve seat gasket annually or when you observe issues such as leaking between positions, overflow through the waste port during normal operation, or inability to hold a filter pressure when the valve is in “filter” mode. Replacing a worn or compressed gasket proactively helps maintain proper valve function and avoids costly valve or liner damage due to mis-plumbed flow.
