Pool Liner J-hook

How do I know what kind of liner we have, this is an above the ground pool. The liner in the pool has no excess liner that we can see. We took the top railing off and it looks like the liner fits right over the panel of the pool and aluminum brackets go over the panel and the bracket is open in the middle all the way through.

Could you tell me if this a called a hung liner or another name.

Hi Billy. It's a hung liner or more commonly called a j-hook liner.

It hooks right over the side of the pool wall. An overlap liner would hang over the outside of the pool by at least a couple of inches and be easily visible from outside the pool.



A beaded liner would hook into a bead receiver that would hang down the inside of the pool by an inch or so. The liner would go into the receiver instead of hooking over the wall.



A unibead liner is capable of being a J-hook or a beaded. It has both functions molded into the top molding of the liner.
