Thanks guys...I may give JB Weld a try on the outside of the tank. I really don't want to mess with going inside the tank. I'll sand it good and give it a try.

Thanks for the reply........Jay

Just out of curiousity... what kind of tank is this?

I have a small hole (crack) on the inside of my old filter but I may patch it and hold onto the tank.

Let me know how the repair turns out.

Thanks.

I have a Pentair SD-60 sandfilter that developed 2 elongated slits in the side last week! Our pool and equip is 2 years old. Will be receiving new tank from Pentair!
Thank goodness!

Please tell me the secret on getting a new filter. I attempted but they wouldn't budge. It still frustrates me because there is no reason it should have cracked.
If possible I'd like to get some details from you so I can still attempt to get the tank replaced.

Thanks!
