What This Part Is Used For The Hayward SPX1485DA is a compression fitting assembly used on compatible Hayward equipment connections. It creates a sealed, serviceable transition at the equipment pad without permanent glue joints. This type of assembly is commonly used where parts need to be removed for maintenance. Why This Part Matters If a compression fitting cracks, strips, or won’t seal, you end up with persistent drips or suction-side air leaks. That can cause pump priming problems and unstable system pressure. Replacing the full assembly restores a proper seal and makes future service easier.
