Product Description
The POOLMASTER 36626 is a molded rubber cap ladder bumper designed to protect pool surfaces from abrasion and impact caused by metal ladder legs. Sold as a set of 2, each cap measures 2.75 inches and fits over the outside of 1-7/8 inch ladder legs or ladder poles. The rubber construction absorbs contact force and prevents direct metal-to-surface contact, reducing the risk of scratching or gouging on vinyl liner and gunite pool finishes. Pool service technicians and maintenance crews install these as a routine protective measure during ladder service or seasonal pool prep.
These bumper caps are suited for residential and light commercial swimming pool ladders. They are an outside-fit design, meaning they slip over the leg end rather than inside it. Common applications include entry and exit ladders mounted on pool decks and pool walls where the ladder leg contacts the pool floor or wall surface. They are appropriate for both vinyl liner pools and gunite pools where protecting the finish from ladder contact is a priority.

Installation Notes
Installation requires no tools — caps are pressed by hand onto the ladder leg ends. Before servicing the ladder, remove any debris or buildup from the leg end to ensure a secure fit. Pool service technicians should verify the leg diameter matches the 1-7/8 inch specification before installation. Inspect caps periodically for cracking or deformation and replace as needed to maintain surface protection.
