I have leak out of top of pentair multi purpose 6 bolt 1 1/2" valve. I changed the spider gasket and valve id leaking out handle seal. Do I need to buy sea for handle or what? 470P part #

Hi Ron, this issue is usually caused by the multiport valve failed washers or stem o rings. Could you send us a few photos of the multiport valve? One of the complete valve and another looking down onto the top of it. To supply photos simply click the reply link below and upload your photos. Once we get those photos we can make the proper recommendation.

This valve is replacing a 25 year old Pentair multiport valve. One of the plastic channels holding the spider gasket in my old valve finally gave way. This new Praher is a perfect fit.
