24850-0200 | Pentair System 3 Filters Filter Clamp Assembly

The OEM Pentair 24850‑0200 Clamp Assembly is engineered to secure Sta‑Rite System 3 filter models, including S7M120, S7M400, S8M150, S8M500, S7D75, S8D110, S7S50, and S8S70. This durable assembly forms a tight seal between the upper and lower filter tank halves, ensuring safe pressure retention and leak-free filtration. Made from high-strength thermoplastic and corrosion-resistant stainless steel hardware (clamp bolts sold separately), it holds up under prolonged exposure to pool chemicals and UV light. Replacing a worn or damaged clamp restores the filter’s structural integrity and ease of maintenance, extending system life and improving reliability.
