Resolved thanks! Lock Ring and Eyeball

[Allhelpappreciated53]

Thanks everyone! I had to take a pair of pliers to unscrew the piece from the wall. Then I could use the entire new assembly SP1419D. Much appreciated!

Hi there! The lock ring for my inground pool return broke. On the lock ring, it shows the model number SP1419-D-1. I didn't find that exact model number online so I called Hayward. Hayward said that the part number I need is SPX1419D1.

My issue is that my old pool lock ring was tan (not sure if that's due to the age or if it came that color), but I want to replace both the lock ring and the eyeball so they are both white. I asked Hayward what the part number is that comes with both the lock ring and the eyeball. They couldn't figure it out. The guy I spoke to said he thought it was SP1419D. I have already tried that part and the lock ring doesn't screw on correctly and it isn't the correct size.

If anyone can help in telling me what part number I need to buy that will come with both the lock ring and the eyeball I would greatly appreciate it!

You may need to replace the entire return assembly. It should be threaded into the FIP fitting in the wall.

Can you show a picture?

I don't think that tan was an available color.

Most likely, the color is from iron stains.

The available colors are white, gray, dark gray and black.

Thanks for the reply! I think that is my issue as I couldn't get the part that is screwed into the wall to come off and I didn't want to damage the pool. Now that I have that loose I will just replace the entire assembly. Thanks!
