Saillong 2-Pack 8" Inground Pool Skimmer Baskets — Blue, Removable Handles & Stainless Hook

These two 8-inch Saillong skimmer baskets with removable handles and a stainless steel hook let you lift and empty inground pool debris without touching muck.

Keep your inground pool clearer with a purpose-built replacement: two blue, 8-1/4" top-diameter skimmer baskets, two attachable handles, a rust-resistant hook rod, and mounting screws. The set is built from chlorine-resistant plastic and reinforced at the base so each basket tolerates normal pressure and repeated removal. The handle and hook let you extract the baskets while standing, reducing contact with leaves, bugs, hair and other waste — and the bright blue color makes them easy to spot in water.

How do these skimmer baskets make pool maintenance easier?

Attach the included handle to the basket, slide the basket into the skimmer housing, and use the stainless steel hook to lift it out. The design keeps your hands away from trapped debris and shortens the time you spend cleaning by holding more leaves and twigs than smaller standard baskets.

• Large-capacity mesh catches leaves, bugs, hair and small twigs
• Removable handle lifts baskets above waterline for hands-free removal
• Hook rod lets you pull the basket without leaning or reaching
• Two baskets allow one to stay in use while you clean the other

Will these skimmer baskets fit my inground pool?

Each basket measures approximately 8-1/4" across the top and is made to be compatible with most inground pool skimmer housings. The universal sizing reduces guesswork when replacing worn or broken baskets.

• 8" (8-1/4" top diameter) fits a wide range of common skimmer models
• Lightweight plastic design mounts with the supplied screws
• Works as a direct replacement for many factory baskets
• Includes two baskets so both sides or multiple skimmers can be serviced

What materials and durability features does this set use?

The baskets are molded from chlorine-resistant plastic with a reinforced bottom to resist cracking under pressure. The hook rod is stainless steel with a sandblasted finish for a smoother, rust-resistant grip that holds up to outdoor pool exposure.

• Corrosion-resistant plastic mesh structure for long service life
• Thickened basket base for greater load-bearing strength
• Stainless steel hook rod resists rust and feels smooth to handle
• Includes screws to secure handles for trouble-free use

Are these skimmer baskets easy to install and use?

Yes — installation is straightforward and requires only the included screws to attach the handle to the basket. Because the baskets are lightweight they may float when the pump is off; adding small stones or weights inside will help keep them submerged and stable during operation.

• Screws provided for secure handle attachment
• Place the basket in the skimmer housing and remove with the hook or handle
• If baskets float, add small weights to keep them down during filtration
• Two-basket pack reduces downtime during routine cleaning

Who is this for? Homeowners and pool service professionals who want a reliable, economical replacement skimmer solution will appreciate this Saillong two-pack. It’s ideal for families who prefer less hands-on contact with pool debris, property managers maintaining multiple pools, and anyone replacing worn factory baskets with a durable, easy-to-use option. The set provides everything needed for immediate swap-in and safer, faster skimmer cleanouts.
