Superoots Air-Pot - Spare Screw Fitting - Replacement Securing Screw
Best for: Superoots Air-Pot owners who've lost or damaged the securing screw that holds the pot's side-wall together.
Our thoughts
It's an easy fitting to lose when you're dismantling a few Air-Pots at the end of a grow, and without it the pot is basically unusable - the side-wall just won't stay closed. At under a pound, there's no reason to bin a whole pot over one missing screw.
Air-Pots are built from a flexible, perforated side-wall that wraps into a cylinder and clips onto the base, held closed at the seam by a single screw fitting. If that screw goes missing or snaps during dismantling or storage, the side-wall won't stay together and the pot can't be used - this is the like-for-like replacement screw for the full Superoots Air-Pot range.
Fitting is simple: wrap the side-wall into a cylinder with the base held between the raised row of cones and the row above it, then join the two ends of the side-wall using the screw fitting. Superoots supply this fitting in different colours depending on pot size, so check which colour matches your pot before ordering if buying to match an existing set.
How it compares
This is a manufacturer spare part rather than a generic hardware fitting.
- Genuine Superoots fit, unlike a generic screw or cable tie that won't seat properly in the moulded cone housing
- Far cheaper than replacing a whole Air-Pot over one small missing part
- Worth keeping a couple spare if you're regularly dismantling and moving pots between grows
A cheap fix for a fiddly but common problem with fabric-and-plastic pot systems.
Usage guidance
Fitting
Wrap the perforated side-wall into a cylinder shape with the base held between the raised cones, then join the two overlapping ends of the side-wall with the screw fitting.
Matching colours
Superoots use different screw colours to match different pot size ranges - check your existing pot's fitting colour before ordering if you want an exact match.
Storage tip
Keep the screw fitted or taped to the pot when dismantling for storage, rather than storing it loose, to avoid losing it again.

Our take
It's about as small a part as they come, but it's the difference between a usable pot and one sat in a corner because it won't close. Cheap enough to just keep a couple spare in the shed.
At a price that makes sense for something this fiddly to lose.
