Pentair Turbine Bearings | Kreepy Krauly Legend & Legend II | EC80

The Pentair EC80 Turbine Bearings are the OEM replacement bearings for the Kreepy Krauly Legend and Legend II automatic pool cleaner lines, including the LX5000G, LX5000GG, and Kreepy Krauly Platinum.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: 2 BEARINGS REQUIRED PER CLEANER
Two turbine bearings are required for a complete service on all compatible models. This listing is sold individually — order 2 to complete the job.

The turbine bearings support the internal turbine assembly inside the cleaner's drive mechanism. As the cleaner moves through the pool, the turbine converts water flow into rotational energy that drives the wheels. Worn or degraded bearings cause the turbine to spin unevenly or seize, resulting in reduced drive performance, erratic movement, or a complete loss of forward motion. Replacing both bearings at the same service interval restores consistent turbine operation and extends the life of the surrounding drive components.

Specifications

Fits Into

Compatibility is based on Pentair parts documentation and available OEM records. This is not an exhaustive list. For certainty, verify the part number in your equipment's manual or on the original part itself before ordering.

Pro Tip

Turbine bearings wear gradually — by the time you notice sluggish or erratic movement, both bearings are typically due for replacement. Service them as a pair rather than replacing only the one that appears most worn. While the cleaner is open, inspect the turbine itself for cracking or debris damage; a healthy turbine paired with fresh bearings will restore full drive performance more reliably than replacing bearings alone.
