⚙️ Compatibility
This Astral Hurlcon Aquatight Service Kit is suitable for many:
- Astral BX Series pumps
- Astral TX Series pumps
- Astral CTX Series pumps
- Astral E-Series pumps
- Hurlcon pool pumps
- Viron pool pumps
- Aquatight pool pumps
Please note: Compatibility and bearing sizes can vary depending on the electric motor fitted to the pump.
We recommend disassembling the motor and confirming the bearing numbers before ordering.
📏 Choosing the Correct Bearing Sizes
The most common bearing arrangement used in these pumps is:
- Front bearing: 6203
- Rear bearing: 6203
Approximately 97% of applicable Astral, Hurlcon and Aquatight pool pumps use a 6203 bearing at both the front and rear of the motor.
However, some motors may use:
- 6202 bearings
- 6203 bearings
- 6204 bearings
- 6205 bearings
The bearing number is normally printed or stamped on the side of the bearing.
For the most accurate result, disassemble the motor and check both bearing numbers before ordering.
Select the required front and rear bearing sizes from the product options above.

💡 Why Service Your Pool Pump?
Replacing worn bearings and seals can extend the life of your pool pump, reduce operating noise and help prevent water from reaching the electric motor.
Servicing the existing pump can be considerably more economical than replacing the complete pool pump.
