About This Item

The Pentair Large Gasket (R36002) is the OEM replacement gasket for the Vac-Mate® Vacuum/Skimmer (R211100), designed specifically to fit the R36009 basket assembly.

This gasket maintains the sealed interface between the Vac-Mate basket and its housing, ensuring proper suction and preventing bypass around the basket. A damaged or deteriorated gasket allows debris-laden water to circumvent the basket entirely, reducing vacuuming effectiveness and potentially allowing particulate matter to pass through the system. Replacing this gasket restores the airtight seat the basket depends on to function correctly.

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

Before ordering, confirm the basket part number stamped on your existing basket is R36009 — the R36002 gasket is sized specifically for that basket and is not interchangeable with other Vac-Mate basket variants. If the gasket shows any cracking, compression set, or irregular seating, replace it before the next use to maintain full suction at the vacuum head.

For the DIY homeowner, Pentair represents the intersection of rugged durability and silicon valley-tier technology. They pioneered the Variable Speed Pump revolution with the IntelliFlo®, saving American pool owners millions in energy costs. Today, their ecosystem focuses heavily on automation, allowing you to control your pump, heater, lights, and chemistry from a single app. While they are a favorite among professional builders, their "EC" (E-Commerce) line of equipment allows homeowners to access pro-grade technology with valid warranties for DIY installation.
