Astralpool ZX / Zodiac ZXC Cartridge Filter Lid Handle — 7820202
Genuine Astralpool lid handle for the ZX-family cartridge filter, part number 7820202. These are the moulded handles on the filter lid that let you turn the locking ring by hand. Supplied individually — a ZX lid uses two handles, held on by four screws (40218). Replace a handle that has snapped, cracked or worn smooth, which is the usual reason a locking ring becomes impossible to undo.
- Physically Stocked, unlike most "drop-shipping" websites.
- Shipped from VIC, NSW, WA, QLD
This is the same filter sold under several brands — Astralpool ZX, Hurlcon ZX, Zodiac ZXC, Zodiac ZCF / Titan ZCF, Astral SMART, Filtrite CF and Aquatight. The Zodiac ZXC is simply the Zodiac-badged Astralpool ZX. Handle colour has changed across production runs (grey, graphite / graphpearl, black); current production is black.
Fits Across The ZX Range
One handle fits every ZX-family lid — there is no size to choose. Confirm you have a ZX (290mm lid) and not the smaller Hurlcon QX (222mm lid).
- Astralpool ZX / Hurlcon ZX: ZX50 to ZX310
- Zodiac ZXC: ZXC50 to ZXC310
- Zodiac ZCF / Titan ZCF: ZCF75 to ZCF200
- Astral SMART: SMART 350 / 450 / 550
- Filtrite CF / Aquatight: ZX-style cartridge filters
What You'll Need
- Two handles (7820202) per lid
- Four handle screws (40218) per lid — renew if corroded
Also Damaged The Ring Or Lid?

Frequently Asked Questions
How many handles does a ZX lid use?
Two, held on by four screws (part 40218). Order two handles for a full set.
Are handles sold as a pair or individually?
Individually. Order two for a complete lid.
My filter is a Zodiac ZXC. Is this the right handle?
Yes. The Zodiac ZXC is the same filter as the Astralpool ZX, just Zodiac-badged, so this handle fits.
My filter is an Astralpool XC. Is this the right handle?
No. The XC is a separate, unrelated filter series and does not use the ZX handle. Contact us with your model and a photo and we will match the correct part.

As with all products, these must be diagnosed and fitted by a qualified and experienced person. This is a special-order item.
In plumbing, named sizes are not the actual measurements. A pipe called “50mm” or “2"” does not measure 50 mm across. Instead, it follows nominal sizing, an internationally-standardised naming system.
Use the Outside Diameter (OD) to check your pipe against fittings. Below is a quick reference for common spa & pool pipe sizes:
| Imperial Name | Metric Name | Pipe Diameter (OD) |
|---|---|---|
| 1/2" | 15mm | ~21.2–21.5 mm |
| 3/4" | 20mm | ~26.6–26.9 mm |
| 1" | 25 mm | ~33.4–33.7 mm |
| 1.5" | 40 mm | ~48.1–48.4 mm |
| 2" | 50 mm | ~60.2–60.8 mm |
| 2.5" | 65 mm | ~75.2–75.5 mm |
These are nominal sizes and are designed to fit matching fittings — not to measure exactly what their name suggests. These are based on PVC Pressure Pipe AS/NZ 1477 Dimensions1.
- º Internal diameters vary slightly by manufacturer and class.
- 1 Not all pool/spa fittings match these dimensions exactly. Some do not follow Australian or international standards. Chinese spas may use proprietary fittings.
Understanding Plumbing Sizes & Nominal Measurements
Plumbing sizes can be confusing. PVC and many other pipe systems use nominal sizes—the size is a name, not the exact measured dimension. This convention is used across most pool and spa systems so that pipes and fittings remain compatible.
Why pipe sizes don’t match the measurements
The Nominal Pipe Size (NPS) system standardises pipe dimensions so that pipes, fittings, valves, and accessories interoperate. Plumbers work with these nominal names every day, but DIYers can be tripped up if they try to match by a tape-measure alone.
How to Measure Pipe Correctly
-
Pipe size is identified by:
- The pipe’s Outside Diameter (OD).
- The fitting’s Inside Diameter (ID) (socket opening).
- Pipe Class / Schedule (e.g., Class 9, 12, 18 or Sch 40) relates to wall thickness and therefore the Internal Diameter (ID) and pressure rating.
- The outside diameter of a fitting is not useful (wall thickness varies by manufacturer).
Hose & Tube Dimensions
Common flexible hose sizes used in pool/spa systems (approximate IDs).
| Imperial Name | Metric Name | Inside Diameter (ID) |
|---|---|---|
| 3/8" | 9–10 mm | ~9 mm |
| 3/4" | 19 mm | ~19 mm |
BSP – British Standard Pipe Thread Sizes
BSP thread names are also nominal. The thread OD will not equal the nominal name.
| BSP Thread Size Naming | Outside Diameter (mm / inch) | TPI |
|---|---|---|
| 1/16" BSP | 7.7 mm / 0.304" | 28 |
| 1/8" BSP | 9.7 mm / 0.383" | 28 |
| 1/4" BSP | 13.16 mm / 0.518" | 19 |
| 3/8" BSP | 16.66 mm / 0.656" | 19 |
| 1/2" BSP / 15 mm | 20.99 mm / 0.825" | 14 |
| 5/8" BSP | 22.99 mm / 0.902" | 14 |
| 3/4" BSP / 20 mm | 26.44 mm / 1.041" | 14 |
| 7/8" BSP | 30.20 mm / 1.189" | 14 |
| 1" BSP / 25 mm | 33.25 mm / 1.309" | 11 |
| 1-1/4" BSP | 41.91 mm / 1.650" | 11 |
| 1-1/2" BSP / 40 mm | 47.80 mm / 1.882" | 11 |
| 2" BSP / 50 mm | 59.61 mm / 2.347" | 11 |
| 2-1/4" BSP | 65.71 mm / 2.587" | 11 |
| 2-1/2" BSP | 75.18 mm / 2.960" | 11 |
| 3" BSP | 87.88 mm / 3.460" | 11 |
| 4" BSP | 113.03 mm / 4.450" | 11 |
| 5" BSP | 138.43 mm / 5.450" | 11 |
| 6" BSP | 163.83 mm / 6.450" | 11 |
