White Coupling for Pool Ladder Step

What a pool ladder coupling is for

The photos show a white plastic part with a thread and a small clamp for fastening. The second photo shows the inner side of the body. The part grips the tube and holds the step in place. Under constant load and contact with water, the plastic wears out over time. That is why the coupling is the part that is replaced most often.

When to replace the coupling

• when the step wobbles or turns;
• when the plastic is cracked or broken;
• when the coupling is lost while dismantling the ladder;
• when its clamp no longer holds.

How it is installed

First take the ladder out of the pool. Then dismantle the step and remove the old coupling. Clean the tube. Fit the new coupling in the same position and lock it. Finally, assemble the ladder and check the stability of the step with light pressure. Do not step on the ladder until after the check.

Advantages of the original coupling

The original Mountfield coupling is made exactly for the manufacturer's ladders. It has the right diameter and the right clamping angle. Universal parts often do not fit and the step stays unstable. The colour also matches the rest of the ladder. This way the ladder looks like new, and you climb it safely. Order the coupling and replace only the worn part. This saves money and time. You also keep using the rest of the ladder, which is in good condition.
