Super-Pro 8" Skimmer Weir (Easy replacement for Pentair/American Admiral skimmer weir)
$15.99
The Super-Pro SPG-251-2002 (also cataloged under Manufacturer Part Number 925) is an 8-inch universal spring-loaded replacement skimmer weir door. This tension-fit gate is engineered as a versatile aftermarket workaround designed to fit broad, standard-throat skimmer housings without requiring specialized matching hinge pins.
Product Specifications
According to industrial spec sheets, the assembly features the following layout:
- Dimensions: 8 inches long by 5-1/4 inches wide.
- Mounting Style: Spring-loaded utility pins. Instead of clipping onto permanent structural pins, it utilizes retractable, spring-tensioned plastic tips at its base that press outward into the skimmer walls.
- Universal Fitting: Ideal for both in-ground and above-ground pool configurations where original factory parts or hinge tabs are damaged, missing, or discontinued.
-
Material Construction:
Molded out of durable white polymer plastic integrated with a buoyant foam core block to allow fluid surface-tracking adjustments.
Installation Instructions
Installing the spring-loaded gate does not require major modifications or tools:
- Clear the Space: Turn off the filtration pump and slide out the skimmer basket to expose the inner throat walling.
- Compress the Tabs: Use household pliers or hand pressure to compress the spring pins inward along the bottom edge of the weir gate.
- Align and Release: Position the gate flat inside the skimmer throat openings where the old door previously sat, then release the tabs to allow the spring tension to lock the pins directly into the wall dimples or side frames. [1]
