Hayward SPX0603S Multiport Valve Spring Replacement
The SPX0603S is an OEM replacement spring designed for a variety of Hayward multiport / selecta-flo valves. If your filter’s valve handle is hard to shift, leaks, or fails to seat properly — often due to a worn or broken spring — this part restores proper tension and reliable operation.
Key Features
- OEM-grade replacement spring for Hayward multiport valves.
- Restores proper handle tension and valve port sealing — helps prevent bypass or leakage between filter, backwash, waste, rinse, recirculate, and closed positions.
- Compatible with many common multiport valve models — including 1½″ and 2″ variants.
- Easy installation — a straightforward spring swap that often restores smooth valve operation without needing a full valve replacement.

When to Use / Replace
Use SPX0603S when your multiport valve handle is loose, difficult to shift, fails to lock in position, or if you experience leakage / bypass between ports. Replacing the spring is often the most cost-effective way to restore proper operation and avoid more expensive full-valve or filter component replacement.
Installation Tips
- Shut off the pump and relieve pressure before servicing the valve.
- Disassemble the valve handle and remove the old spring carefully — take note of spring orientation and seat placement.
- Install the new SPX0603S spring, reassemble the handle and cover, and confirm proper action and port sealing before restarting.
- Test by cycling through all valve positions and checking for leaks or bypass.
