GLI Sugar Creek Unibead Liner

Uni-Bead is a versatile attachment system that allows this liner to be installed in two ways: either as a J-hook that hangs over the pool wall or by snapping into a bead receiver track. It is designed to be compatible with most above-ground pools, but you should verify if your pool currently uses a bead receiver or requires an overlap-style installation before purchasing.

Yes, 20-gauge vinyl is a standard, reliable thickness for above-ground pool liners. It offers a good balance between flexibility for easier installation and the durability needed to resist punctures and seasonal wear.

No, this liner is specifically engineered for a 52-inch wall height. Installing it on a pool with a different wall height will result in a poor fit, causing the liner to either pull away from the top or bunch up at the bottom, which can lead to premature tearing.

No, this product is the liner only. You will need to reuse your existing skimmer faceplate and return fitting or purchase new ones separately to ensure a watertight seal.

The pool floor should be smooth, clean, and free of any debris, rocks, or sharp objects that could puncture the vinyl. Many installers recommend adding a layer of pool cove or a foam liner pad to protect the vinyl and create a softer feel underfoot.
