OEM Polaris Small Wheel C16 is a genuine idler wheel replacement for Polaris Vac-Sweep 180 and 280 pool cleaners. This smaller wheel fits between the larger drive wheels and is essential for helping the cleaner maintain balance, climb slopes, and move efficiently across pool surfaces. It transfers motion from one side of the drive shaft to the other, improving cleaner mobility and coverage. Constructed from durable materials, the C16 installs using standard Polaris parts such as wheel lock screws and ball bearings, making it a simple and effective solution for restoring performance.
