Where to buy
The Jabsco 15299-1000 is a flexible rubber impeller for Jabsco pumps. It is a replacement part, changed by taking off the pump's end cover screws and pulling the old impeller out. Grip the hub with channel lock pliers or a Jabsco removal tool, and keep screwdrivers away, since they can damage the pump body and cause leaks. Grease the new impeller before it goes in, then refit the gasket and end cover.
Our take
A flexible rubber impeller like this one should be greased before fitting, which protects it during first prime. When pulling the old one, pliers on the hub are the safer choice over screwdrivers, which can damage the pump body.
From our buying guide
The impeller depends on the pump, so find it by the pump's model number. Makers' schedules differ, with some saying every year and others every 300 hours or three years, so go by the one for your engine.
Check before you buy:
- It matches your old one on blade count, shaft diameter, outside diameter, material, drive type and depth.
- You've checked any substitute against the pump housing, since cross-references are the makers' own claims.
- The material suits the job. Jabsco recommends neoprene for engine cooling, and nitrile for bilge pumping and water with oil or diesel.
