Liner track detail

Our Inground Liner Bead

The liner bead is the top edge that locks the vinyl liner into the track around the pool. This diagram shows the standard Ameri-Brand bead profile used for inground liner fit checks and replacement-liner questions.

Quick fit check
  • Compare the old liner bead to the diagram before ordering.
  • Look for cracked, loose, or stretched liner track.
  • Send close-up photos if the bead or track does not look standard.

Made for liner track

The bead is the formed top edge of the vinyl liner. It seats into the receiver track around the pool wall.

Useful for comparison

Use the diagram when checking an existing track, comparing an older liner, or sending photos for review.

Measurements still matter

The bead helps the liner hang in the track, but the finished fit still depends on the pool dimensions you provide.

What to check

Match the bead and track before ordering

Most replacement questions are straightforward when the existing liner track is in good shape and accepts a standard bead. If your pool has unusual coping, damaged track, or an older liner that does not look like this profile, clear photos can help us confirm the next step before an order is placed.

Good fit still starts with accurate pool measurements. The bead holds the liner in place at the wall, while the liner body is built around the dimensions, floor, hopper, and shape details you submit.
