Hayward ELEMENT STARCLEAR 200

The Hayward Replacement Element for the Star-Clear C200 is a high-performance filtration cartridge designed specifically for use in the Star-Clear C2000 series filter housings. It is constructed from a premium, heavy-duty polyester fabric that is precision-pleated to provide a full 200 square feet of effective surface area, allowing it to trap fine debris, minerals, and organic contaminants while maintaining a high flow rate. The element features reinforced molded end caps and a rugged internal PVC core that maintains the cartridge's structural integrity under the constant hydraulic pressure of a pool’s circulation system. This design promotes maximum water flow and minimizes pump backpressure, which leads to superior water clarity and improved energy efficiency. Designed for long-term durability, the specialized filter media is resistant to chemical degradation and can be periodically rinsed with a garden hose to restore its dirt-holding capacity. For shipping and logistical purposes, the estimated weight of the Hayward Star-Clear 200 Replacement Element is approximately 9.8 pounds in its retail packaging, while the actual dry weight of the filter media and its structural components is roughly 8.6 pounds.
