About This Item
The Pentair Replacement Skimmer and Pump Basket (R38016) is the OEM replacement strainer basket for the Hayward SP-1600M pump, with confirmed fitment on the SP-1600X and SP-2600X Super Pump models and compatibility with the Aladdin B-167 replacement basket.
This basket sits inside the pump's strainer housing and catches debris before water reaches the impeller. A cracked, warped, or missing basket allows leaves and debris to pass through to the pump internals — replacing it with the correct OEM-spec basket restores proper pre-filtration and protects the pump's impeller and diffuser.

Poolaroo Pro Tip
Before ordering, measure your existing basket rather than relying on the pump model number alone — some SP-1600 variants shipped with different basket dimensions depending on production year and regional market. Match the height and maximum outside dimension against the figures above to confirm R38016 is the correct fit for your housing.
