Hayward Strainer Basket for TriStar VS and TriStar XE Pumps | SPX3200M C9401 Performance and fit are equivalentThe Hayward Strainer Basket (SPX3200M) is the OEM replacement strainer basket for Hayward TriStar VS and TriStar XE variable speed pumps. The strainer basket sits inside the pump's strainer housing and captures debris before it can reach the impeller, maintaining flow efficiency and protecting internal pump components. Replacing a cracked, warped, or missing basket restores this protective function and helps prevent premature wear on downstream parts.
