Polaris B15 Sweep Hose Clamp – OEM Replacement for 180, 280 & 380 Cleaners
Secure Your Polaris Cleaner’s Sweep Hose with Confidence
The Polaris B15 Sweep Hose Clamp is a small but essential part of your pressure-side pool cleaner system. Specifically designed for Polaris 180, 280, and 380 models, this OEM clamp secures the sweep hose to the cleaner body—keeping it firmly attached while allowing the tail to move freely and sweep debris from your pool floor and walls.
Without a functioning B15 clamp, your sweep hose can disconnect, come loose during cleaning, or even cause leaks that reduce cleaner performance. That’s why this part is a staple in any Polaris cleaner repair or maintenance kit. Whether you're doing routine upkeep or troubleshooting issues like poor tail movement or water leakage, replacing your sweep hose clamp is often the fast, affordable fix.
At just $4.95, the Polaris B15 clamp offers exceptional value while maintaining the quality and reliability pool owners have come to expect from genuine Polaris pool parts.
What Is the Sweep Hose Clamp and Why Does It Matter?
The sweep hose on your Polaris cleaner is the small tail at the rear of the unit. As the cleaner moves around the pool, the sweep hose whips back and forth, dislodging fine debris from corners, steps, and surfaces that the cleaner body might miss. This hose plays a critical role in keeping your pool spotless—especially in areas where dirt tends to settle.
The B15 clamp holds that sweep hose in place. It fits around the connection point between the cleaner body and the hose, providing a watertight seal and preventing the hose from slipping off during operation.
A missing, damaged, or worn-out B15 clamp can cause:
-
The sweep hose to detach from the cleaner
-
Reduced cleaner effectiveness
-
Air or water leaks that affect suction and pressure
-
Water spraying in unintended directions
Replacing it with a genuine Polaris B15 clamp restores full functionality to your cleaner and prevents more serious issues down the line.
Fits the Most Popular Polaris Models
This OEM clamp is specifically designed for the following Polaris pressure-side pool cleaners:
-
Polaris 180 – A compact, efficient model ideal for smaller residential pools.
-
Polaris 280 – Polaris’ most popular cleaner known for its power and reliability.
-
Polaris 380 – A high-performance cleaner with triple jets and improved climbing capability.
These cleaners are widely used in residential and commercial pools alike. Whether you’re a homeowner or pool service pro, having a few Polaris B15 clamps on hand means you’re always ready for quick maintenance or emergency fixes.
OEM-Grade Quality and Performance
When it comes to Polaris pool parts, OEM means confidence. The B15 clamp is an authentic Polaris replacement part, not an aftermarket substitute. That means it’s made from durable, chemical-resistant plastic, molded precisely to fit your cleaner, and tested to ensure a snug, leak-free connection every time.
Because it's built to Polaris factory specs, you don’t have to worry about cracking, slipping, or incompatibility. Just snap it on and get back to swimming in a cleaner, more enjoyable pool.
Easy to Install – No Tools Required
One of the best things about the Polaris B15 Sweep Hose Clamp is how simple it is to install. In most cases, no tools are needed:
-
Remove the old clamp (if present) by gently prying it apart or cutting it off.
-
Slide the sweep hose onto the tailpiece at the back of the cleaner.
-
Snap the new B15 clamp into place over the hose and fitting.
-
Ensure the connection is tight and secure—you're done!
It’s a two-minute fix that restores full cleaning power to your Polaris cleaner. If the sweep hose is also worn or stiff, consider replacing it along with the clamp for best results.
