Intex inlet and jet part kit for above-ground pools 38mm hose — 26005E replacement set with plunger valve & jet nozzle

The Intex 26005E inlet and jet part kit is a full replacement set that restores water circulation and air-jet function for above-ground pools with 38 mm hose fittings.

If your Intex pool needs a reliable inlet, plunger valve or air nozzle solution, this genuine Intex connection kit supplies the main components used to control flow and keep water moving. Designed for systems that use 38 mm (1.5-inch) hoses and filter pumps rated about 7.3 to 9.2 m³/h (1,900–2,450 GPH), the kit comes ready to install so you can replace worn parts quickly and get the pump back to full performance.

How does this kit restore pool circulation?

Replacing cracked or clogged inlets and strainers with properly matched parts ensures the filter pump can draw and return water efficiently. The included plunger (gate) valve lets you open or close flow to the inlet, while the strainers protect the pump from debris.

• Includes a plunger valve with O-ring to control inflow and seal against leaks
• Two strainer connectors adapted for 38 mm (1.5") hose fittings
• Two strainer grids to prevent leaves and larger debris from entering the pump
• Compatible with pumps in the 7.3–9.2 m³/h flow range

Can I use the air-jet nozzle to refresh water movement?

The water revitalization jet nozzle included in the kit adds an air inlet and return fitting to your pool wall, improving circulation patterns and creating a gentle jet effect. It installs into the same sidewall inlet locations as other inlet fittings and seals with the provided O-ring to prevent leaks.

• One complete inlet air-jet nozzle assembly with exterior jet and internal fittings
• O-ring included to ensure a watertight fit
• Compatible with the other pieces in this Intex kit for straightforward assembly
