Specifically constructed for use with classic Sta-Rite® 2-inch bronze slide valves—commonly paired with high-performance System:3® series sand and diatomaceous earth (D.E.) filtration tanks—this rugged link arm serves as the primary pivot bridge connecting the manual operator handle to the internal brass piston shaft assembly. Precision-cast from a marine-grade, high-tensile bronze alloy, this linkage offers unparalleled structural strength, resisting bending or fracturing under heavy physical pull forces even when operating against dense internal fluid resistance. The solid bronze composition delivers permanent immunity to structural degradation from intense UV sun exposure, high-temperature pump pads, and aggressive pool sanitation chemistry, including concentrated chlorine, bromine, and high salt levels. By replacing a worn, loose, or corroded linkage, pool service technicians and homeowners can instantly restore fluid, non-binding handle operation, ensuring the valve piston seats completely to eliminate costly water weeping down the backwash waste line or internal fluid bypass. Built to handle continuous system operating line pressures up to 50 PSI and survive decades of heavy mechanical cycling, this robust hardware component maintains peak circulation efficiency across the equipment pad.
