Pulems Pool Sand Filter Pump Hose 1.5in x 16in Replacement for Intex — Polyethylene, Leak-Resistant

Pulems 11535 is a 16-inch, 1.5-inch-diameter replacement interconnecting hose designed to link Intex-style sand filter pumps and above-ground or saltwater pool systems.

This durable pump hose replaces Intex part 11535 and connects sand filters to pumps on above-ground pools and saltwater setups. Made from flexible polyethylene, the hose is built to resist leaks and cracking while keeping water flowing between your pool pump and sand filter. It’s a straightforward repair part for restoring circulation and maintaining filtration without replacing major components.

How does this hose fit my Intex sand filter system?

The Pulems 11535 hose is sized to match Intex systems that use a 1.5" connection and a 16" length interconnect between pump and filter. It’s intended as a direct replacement for Intex part numbers typically specified on sand filter manuals. If your filter and pump use the same diameter fittings, the hose will thread or secure in the same way as the original.

• Diameter: 1.5 inches — matches standard Intex pump connectors
• Length: 16 inches — designed for common pump-to-filter spacing
• Replaces Intex part 11535 — compatible with listed models
• Knob-style interface for easier hand-tight installation

What materials and durability can I expect from this replacement hose?

The hose is manufactured from high-quality polyethylene that balances flexibility with structural strength. That material choice helps prevent common problems like cracking, kinking, or leaking when exposed to pool chemicals and outdoor conditions. The hose remains lightweight while resisting abrasion and repeated handling.

• Polyethylene construction for chemical and UV resistance
• Flexible design reduces stress at connection points
• Rigid enough to hold shape under typical pump pressure
• Manufactured to avoid brittle failure in seasonally variable temperatures

How easy is installation and maintenance for a homeowner?

Installation is meant to be quick: remove the old hose and secure the Pulems replacement with the same connection method, using the hose’s knob design for simpler tightening. No specialized tools are typically required, though a wrench can help loosen old fittings. Periodic inspection for cracks and secure connections is the main maintenance advice.

• Tool-free knob interface for fast hand tightening
• Swap-out process mirrors the original hose removal
• Inspect annually or if you notice reduced flow
• Compatible with saltwater systems—rinse if heavily chlorinated

Which Intex models and pool setups are compatible?

This replacement is made to work with a range of Intex sand filter pumps and compatible saltwater systems, specifically models that use the 1.5" interconnecting hose. It’s suitable for most above-ground pool configurations that pair a sand filter with an external pump and require a 16" link hose. Verify your original part number or measure the fittings when in doubt.

• Compatible with Intex sand filter models 26371CA, 26371EH, 28647EG, SF60110-2
• Designed for above-ground and saltwater pool systems
• Fits pumps and filters using 1.5" diameter connections
• Works as a direct replacement for Intex part 11535

Who is this for: the Pulems 11535 replacement hose is ideal for pool owners who need a reliable, easy-to-install interconnect hose between a sand filter and pump — especially those running Intex-compatible above-ground or saltwater systems. It suits DIYers wanting a fast, cost-effective fix and maintenance-minded owners aiming to keep water flowing efficiently without replacing the whole pump or filter assembly.
