This swivel prevents hose tangling by allowing each section to rotate freely as the cleaner travels across the pool floor and walls. Built from durable, UV-resistant materials designed for constant water exposure, the 370496Z restores proper mobility and suction efficiency when the original swivel becomes stiff, cracked, or worn. It installs quickly onto the hose, helping the cleaner maintain consistent coverage and reliable debris pickup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"845\" data-end=\"861\"\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"862\" data-end=\"1703\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"862\" data-end=\"1033\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"864\" data-end=\"1033\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"864\" data-end=\"896\"\u003eRestores Full Hose Rotation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Allows each hose section to pivot freely, preventing tight coils or tangling that limit cleaner movement and reduce cleaning coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1034\" data-end=\"1205\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1036\" data-end=\"1205\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1036\" data-end=\"1074\"\u003eEnsures Smooth Cleaner Navigation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maintains proper hydraulic balance by keeping the hose flexible as the cleaner moves across floors, walls, and tight pool areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1206\" data-end=\"1385\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1208\" data-end=\"1385\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1208\" data-end=\"1245\"\u003eOEM Fit for Kreepy Krauly Models:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed to match the exact swivel used on modern Kreepy Krauly suction cleaners, ensuring proper hose alignment and suction performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1386\" data-end=\"1547\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1388\" data-end=\"1547\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1388\" data-end=\"1425\"\u003eDurable, Pool-Grade Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made from impact-resistant, UV-stable plastic engineered to withstand daily exposure to water, chemicals, and sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1548\" data-end=\"1703\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1550\" data-end=\"1703\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1550\" data-end=\"1584\"\u003eQuick, Tool-Free Installation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Snaps into the existing hose section for a fast service solution, ideal for routine maintenance or full hose rebuilds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePentair Kreepy Krauly Pool Cleaners (2013 and Later)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"280\" data-end=\"299\"\u003eAdditional Info\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"300\" data-end=\"571\"\u003eThis FAQ helps in-store customers verify that the Pentair 370496Z swivel assembly fits their Kreepy Krauly suction cleaner.
