Even with new hardware in place, a worn or damaged seating surface can undermine the head seal. Torque all screws evenly in a cross pattern to distribute clamping load uniformly across the head flange.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- wft:processed:manual:2026-06-22 --\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54309098258707,"sku":"ECX10271A","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/0687\/5411\/files\/HPPECX10271A_0.jpg?v=1781714531","url":"https:\/\/poolaroo.com\/products\/hayward_ecx10271a","provider":"Poolaroo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
