Hayward Navigator V-Flex and PoolVac cleaners were produced in multiple color variants. Verify the color of your existing flaps against your cleaner before ordering to ensure a correct match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe flap assembly controls the directional movement and suction behavior of the cleaner as it traverses the pool floor and walls. Worn or torn flaps reduce the cleaner's ability to maintain consistent suction contact with pool surfaces, resulting in erratic movement and reduced cleaning coverage. This kit includes two replacement flaps along with front and rear springs, supplying all the components needed to restore proper flap function.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin: 20px 0; border: 1px solid #ccc;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHayward Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003eAXV434-237\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003eGray Metallic\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKit Contents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e2 flaps, front spring, rear spring\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Equipment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003eHayward Navigator V-Flex, Hayward PoolVac\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e610377309752\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePoolaroo Pro Tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen replacing the flaps, inspect the front and rear springs at the same time — this kit includes both, so there's no reason to reuse worn springs. While the cleaner is out of the water for service, check the hose connections and swivel for wear. Addressing multiple wear items in a single service visit keeps the cleaner running reliably through the season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- wft:processed:manual:2026-06-18 --\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54308426121491,"sku":"AXV434-237","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/poolaroo.com\/products\/haywardpoolproductsinc_axv434-237","provider":"Poolaroo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
