The Hayward Key/Seal Assembly (SPX0714CA) is the OEM replacement key and seal assembly for the VariFlo XL Control Valve (SP0714T), restoring proper valve operation and preventing bypass or leakage at the diverter. What It Does The key/seal assembly forms the core rotating and sealing interface inside the VariFlo XL Control Valve. When the assembly wears or develops leaks, water can bypass the intended flow path or the valve handle loses positive indexing between positions. Replacing this assembly restores the valve's ability to direct water accurately and seal securely across all operating positions.

Poolaroo Pro Tip Before installing the new key/seal assembly, inspect the valve body seat surface for scoring or debris. A damaged seat will cause premature wear on the replacement assembly regardless of part quality. Clean the seat thoroughly and confirm the body is in serviceable condition before reinstalling.
