Multi-Tork MT-100H Socket for Hayward Filters & Harmsco Filters

This is the Multi-Tork MT-100H for the Hayward SwimClear and Pro-Grid DE filters. It also is reverable and will work on wing nut closure filter systems such as Harmsco, Solberg and others. This is the latest addition to the Multi-Tork family of filter sockets which make filter cleaning a breeze.



MT-100H fits:

Hayward SwimClear Cartridge Filters
C2030
C3030
C4030
C5030
C7030Sw

Hayward Pro-Grid DE Pool Filters
DE2420
DE4820
DE6020
DE7220


If you are interested in purchasing the MT-100H you can contact Tal the owner of Multi-tork and he can let you know where to get it from.

He is a pool guy also who created the Multi-tork sockets several years ago to help mke filter cleaning easy on everyone. The video also features the other sockets and you can find the links to purchase these on my website:


I suggest the value pack which includes the MT-100, the MT-50 and the MTJ-770. The Value pack is called the MT-301:


The MT-100 and the MT-100H are both made out of Anodized Aluminum and are super strong. I have had my MT-100 for over two years and use it on at least 80 filters a year and it is just like new. The MT-50 is super handy also for the old Pentair 2000 Series Filters and the 4000 Series Filters. And of course the MTJ-770 is essential for the Sta-Rite System 3 filters.

The MT-100H when flipped over will fit the wing nut closure filter systems such as Harmsco, Solberg and others. These filters can be found throughout Europe and on some Commercial Pools in the US also. 

If you are a pool service company you will love these sockets. I suggest a drill with a lot of power so you are probably going to pay something in the $100 range for a good cordless drill. The Stanley drill I use in all of my videos is a good example. It is over 2 years old and has plenty of power over 400 lbs of torque per inch. It is discontinued however once Black & Decker took over Stanley but here is a similar drill by Makita with 480 lbs of torque:



The torque is important because some of the nuts need a lot of force to secure the clamps. Many of the Hayward and Pentair filters require this to get the clamp on securely. So go with a powerful cordless drill if you use the Multi-Tork socket.

A quick word on Tal. We have become good friends over the years and I see him at my local pool show each year. He does a lot of the pool shows, the two in Florida, Las Vegas, New Orleans, Northeast pool show and the Western Pool & Spa Show. If you attend the shows be sure to stop by his booth and pick up a set of the Multi-Tork tools.

Now that I have the MT-100H I can do almost all of my pool filters using my cordless drill to get the clamps on and off quickly. This saves me at least 5 minutes per pool and if added up over the course of the year that is a lot of time. Something like 12 hours if you take apart 80 filters every six month or 160 year. That is half a day of work. Please see my other Multi-Tork videos to learn more:
