O-Ring Pick for Pool Pump & Filter Repair

Remove O-rings from pool pumps, filters, and spa equipment without damaging plastic housings. Essential for Hayward, Pentair, Waterway maintenance.

Pool service technicians and homeowners maintaining backyard pools face ongoing O-ring challenges. Pool pumps, filters, valves, and spa equipment rely on dozens of O-rings to prevent water leaks, but exposure to chlorine, UV rays, and temperature fluctuations causes these seals to harden, crack, and compress over time. Replacing worn O-rings during routine maintenance should be straightforward, but removing old seals from plastic pump housings, filter lids, and valve bodies without scratching surfaces or cracking brittle grooves often proves difficult, improvised tools like screwdrivers or butter knives frequently gouge soft plastics or break mounting tabs.

This professional O-ring removal pick features dual-tip design specifically useful for pool and spa equipment. The curved tip slides between O-rings and plastic pump lids, filter housing flanges, and valve body seals to extract compressed rings without surface damage. The angled tip accesses O-rings in recessed areas like multi-port valve assemblies, spa jet fittings, and behind filter cartridge housings where fingers cannot reach.
