Pentair Sta-Rite pump basket - C8-58P

Replace a damaged, cracked, or clogged pump basket with the Pentair Sta-Rite C8-58P basket. Designed for several popular series of in-ground pool and spa pumps, this basket collects leaves, hair, and large debris before they reach the impeller.

A basket in good condition helps maintain efficient water circulation, reduce the risk of blockages, and protect the pump's internal components.

Effectively protects your pump

Installed in the prefilter housing, the basket captures debris carried by the water before it enters the pump.

Benefits

• Captures leaves and large debris
• Helps protect the impeller
• Reduces the risk of blockages
• Promotes consistent water circulation
• Makes filtration system maintenance easier
• Directly replaces a worn or damaged basket

A clean, intact basket helps ensure proper pump and hydraulic system operation.

Compatible with several Pentair Sta-Rite pumps

The C8-58P basket fits several lines of Pentair Sta-Rite pumps for in-ground pools and spas.
