Muskin Parts

by Anthony

I need a top plate nut, # 0513828, for an old Muskin Pool. Any suggestions?

Hi Anthony. Here is a link to a store that sells Muskin above ground pool parts. I am not sure they have what you need but it might be worth a try. They have quit using those nuts but I would hope some are still available.

Metal Rods on Muskin Pool

by George White
(Richlands, NC)

About seven years ago, I purchased and installed an 18' x 33' above ground Muskin pool. It has Metal strips holding the liner to the top.

The pool and liner are in excellent condition, but the metal strips are beginning to rust as I use the salt/chlorine - chlorinator method to keep the pool clean. What should I use to change these? When I do take them off are they going to damage the liner?

Thanks, George



Hi George. Changing the metal rods on an above ground pool is fairly easy. I recommend lowering the water level to about half way. This releases the pressure on the top rails and will make it easier getting them back into place. Under the metal rods are pieces of plastic coping that go directly over the liner. These should protect the liner from the rods cutting into it.

All I do to remove the rods is to lift up on the coping until the rod comes loose. It's OK if the coping comes off also, just put it back on exactly as it was.

I have seen these rods get extremely rusty and literally fall apart during a liner change. It is a good idea to keep an eye on them and change them before they get that bad. If they are not flaking and dropping rust into the pool they might be OK for a while, maybe until the time comes for your next liner change. That's really the best time to change them because if they do fall apart they are not dropping rust and pieces of metal into your pool water.

For replacement parts you could check this site, it's the only place I know of selling Muskin Pool Parts.

Make and Model of Pool

by Amy
(Wickliffe, KY)

We were given an above ground pool that is about 3 yrs old. There is an M with either a 3 or a B right next to the M as if this is the logo of the manufacturer. Any ideas? We are going to need to get some replacement parts for it and I know it will be a lot easier if we know what brand and model of pool it is. Thanks for any help
