Hayward NICHE SCREW PAK

The Hayward Niche Screw Pak is a specialized hardware set designed for the secure installation and maintenance of pool light niches within the pool wall structure. Precision-machined from high-grade, marine-class 300-series stainless steel, these fasteners are engineered to remain permanently submerged in chlorinated or salt-water environments without falling victim to oxidation, pitting, or structural failure. Their primary mechanical function is to provide a rigid connection between the light niche housing and the pool's mounting surface, or to secure the internal grounding and bonding components required for electrical safety. These screws often feature a pilot-point design to help guide the thread into place during difficult underwater installations and are built with high-torque heads to prevent stripping during future light servicing. By ensuring a flush and stable fit, they prevent the light fixture from shifting or vibrating, which protects the integrity of the niche's waterproof seals. For shipping and logistical purposes, the estimated weight of the Hayward Niche Screw Pak is approximately 0.14 pounds in its retail protective packaging, while the actual dry weight of the individual stainless steel fasteners is roughly 0.08 pounds.
