Hayward Robot connector??

[sanfordturbo]

My inground pool has a special hole where I connect my hayward robot. It is more like a jet nozzle that shoots water into the hose that connects to the robot. Anyways, the hose connector usually twists into the port and locks in. Well, the hose doesn't twist lock into the port anymore. The plastic locking teeth in the jet nozzle have broken off. I'm not talking about the connector on the hose to the robot, i'm talking about the jet nozzle in the wall of the pool.

My question is: What is this connector called? I want to get a new one, but don't know how to find it online. I believe it screws out of the socket, so it should be easy to replace.

Sounds like you have a pressure side Hayward cleaner (probably a viper or phantom). The part you need should be available from any Hayward dealer or a pool store that can get parts. The part you need is called a universal wall fitting (if it's the part that is screwed into the wall return that the cleaner hose attaches to).

The part # for the universal wall fitting is AX5004L1 and, as Evan said, works for both the Viper and the Phantom

Thanks everyone! I have ordered the part online. It was super cheap and much easier to find with the proper terms and part numbers!
