Pentair R38013B American Basket Assembly Replacement Pool Skimmer and Pump

Pentair R38013B American Basket Assembly Replacement Pool Skimmer and Pump

Q: Does anyone know if this has a second set of locking tabs, that fit the matching slots on the basket? Only one set is visible in the photo.

It has two sets. You have to line it up twice to lock it together. Its perfect for our set up and it works great with no problems.

Q: Can you give me the outside diameter size, inside diameter size and the height?

There is a return flange on the top of this skimmer so there are two IDs: 5-3/4" & 4-9/16". The OD is 5-15/16" and the height is 7-13/16". Hope that helps.

Q: The one I am replacing has 3 tabs Does this one have 3 tabs ?

No it has more than 3. When I purchased this I was looking for the 3 tab one as well so I couldn't even use this

Q: I just received this, it has no locking tabs, just a smooth tube. Is this unit defective? Will it work without the locking tabs?

If the locking tabs are not on the unit it will not work properly. I would recommend returning I and getting a replacement.
