PVXH011SA | Hayward AquaNaut Steering Bracket Roller

OEM Hayward PVXH011SA Steering Bracket Roller is a genuine replacement component designed to restore navigation precision for Hayward AquaNaut 200, 250, 400, 450, and Poolvergnuegen 2- and 4-wheel pool cleaners. This mechanism enhances maneuverability by triggering the cleaner's reverse cycle, allowing it to change direction and avoid obstacles like steps and drains. The integrated black roller interfaces with wheel hub gears while the reverse actuator rotates with the cam, ensuring consistent turning and improved coverage. Built from high-strength, pool-grade materials, the PVXH011SA supports long-term cleaner efficiency and reliability.

• Enables Reverse Movement Functionality: Engages the gear hub to trigger back-up mode and help the cleaner escape tight corners and obstructions

• Black Roller and White Cam Assembly: Works in sync to rotate the cam and drive gear engagement during steering sequences

• Constructed for Pool Environments: Resistant to UV, chemicals, and wear from continuous in-water operation
