Overview

OSENCLO presents a Heavy Duty 8-Inch Skimmer Basket designed for reliability and straightforward maintenance. Acting as a direct replacement for Pentair S-200 85014500, it also fits related baskets such as V38-125 and CMP 27182-200-000.

Why this matters

In inground pool setups, a well-fitting skimmer basket helps manage debris while supporting consistent water flow. The built-in weight keeps the basket submerged, so leaves, twigs, and other detritus are captured efficiently without floating away during skimming cycles, contributing to smoother operation of the skimmer system.

Key Benefits

• Durable, corrosion‑resistant stainless steel handle with a non-slip rubber grip for comfortable, secure removal and cleaning.
• Heavy‑duty plastic construction designed for year‑round use in both residential and commercial pools, reducing replacement needs.
• Optimized water flow to support efficient pump operation by capturing leaves and debris without disrupting circulation.
