Does this hose have a "swivel" joint at the end of it?

This hose does not have a swivel joint at the end of it. The Hayward Navigator, Navigator Pro, Pool Vac, and Pool Vac Ultra do not require a hose with a swivel.

why are my hayward navigator hoses twisting around one another instead of just guiding the navigator around the pool.

Judy- Sometimes the Single Light Grey Leader Hose (v532lg) 3265B on the Hayward Navigator Pro Concrete Cleaner 925ADC can become tangled easily when they have been left in the water too long. They build "memory" after a while, I would suggest taking all of the hoses out of the water and laying them on the pool deck in the sun as straight as possible. The sun will "bake" the hoses causing them to expand and when they cool they will return to normal.

Just a pie in the sky thought. I have an old Hayward NaviGator and occasionally having air leak issues with some of 4 ft sections of the hose. To compensate, I use high vacuum grease on every connection. Instead of buying replacement 4 ft. hose sections, could a regular vacuum hose be used instead. Of course the leader hose for the NaviGator would still be used but using one single piece of vacuum hose might eliminate the possibility of leaking NaviGator hose joints. Can this be done?

The 4ft sections of hose are made with a specific buoyancy and weight designed to work with these cleaners. Manual vacuum hoses are too heavy to be used for the Hayward pool vacuums.

Does the end attached to the navigator rotate on this hose?

Hello David, the hose cuff on this will not rotate, when it is hooked into the gear on the top of the cleaner the gear is the one that swivels and makes the cleaner turn. This hose connects directly to the cleaner.

Does this hose fit into skimmer one end and Hayward leaf canister other end? I believe it does but require confirmation before ordering the W530 and this plus AXV092 to fit 50' Suction hose.

That is the lead hose that you would use to hook up to your suction outlet on the side of your pool; looks like a return jet but it takes water back to the pump. It might fit in your skimmer if the opening to your skimmer is 1-3/4".

I'm looking to buy ten 4ft hose and 1 leader hose, How do I go about doing this? Please send me a email.

Hello William, often times these hoses are not used with the the same cleaner models. I recommend contacting us during the regular business hours of M-F between the hours of 9-6pm eastern standard time using our online chat feature so we can confirm your cleaner model and hoses needed.
