Track Replacement Kit for Pool Cleaner
Product Overview
When an MX6 or MX8 cleaner stalls or spins its wheels, fresh heavy-duty drive tracks restore factory climbing traction in minutes.
In our experience servicing suction cleaners, worn tracks are the primary reason Zodiac MX6 and MX8 units lose wall-climbing ability. This PWP Track Replacement Kit provides a direct-fit dual track set built from durable elastomer to restore full drive-gear engagement and prevent side-wheel slippage across plaster, pebble, and vinyl pool surfaces.

When To Use This
Pro Tip
Always replace both tracks at the same time; replacing only 1 track creates uneven rotational drag across the dual gearbox assembly, accelerating internal gear wear.
Common Questions & Instructions
How often should you replace the tracks on a Zodiac MX8 or MX6 pool cleaner?
In standard residential pools, cleaner tracks typically last between 12 and 24 months before rubber degradation occurs. If the outer tread depth wears down below 1/16 inch or the track stretches loose enough to skip drive gear teeth, replace both tracks simultaneously.
What are the signs that my pool cleaner tracks need replacement?
Signs include the cleaner stalling in 1 spot while the turbines spin, failing to climb 45-degree wall slopes, or tracks slipping off the wheels during 3-hour filtration cycles. Inspect the internal track teeth for rounding or excessive slack beyond standard tension.
Is any special tool required to install this track replacement kit?
No tools are required; the installation takes roughly 3 to 5 minutes total. Simply compress the cleaner chassis slightly with 1 hand and walk the new track over the 2 drive wheel sprockets until fully seated in the center guide channel.
