Know before you buy
This replacement part is specifically designed for oval above-ground pools with a 42-inch wall height from the Steel Pro MAX, Power Steel, and Coleman lines. Before purchasing, verify that your pool model matches these height and series specifications to ensure a proper fit.
This listing is for the U-support piece itself. It is designed to connect to your existing pool frame hardware, so you should retain the pins and clips from your original setup.
The support is crafted from corrosion-resistant steel specifically treated to withstand exposure to pool water and outdoor elements. While it is built for long-term durability, it is always a good practice to rinse the frame with fresh water if it is frequently splashed with chemically treated pool water.
Installation is straightforward and designed for easy attachment to your existing frame. Depending on the tension of your pool liner, you may need to slightly lower the water level or have a second person help support the pool wall while you swap out the piece.
No, this support is engineered specifically for the geometry of oval pools. The curvature and structural requirements of round pools differ, so this part will not provide the correct stability for a round frame.
