Specifications

Drive
Pulley

A Jabsco self-priming flexible impeller pump that is driven by a pulley and made for engine cooling. The body is corrosion resistant bronze with stainless shafts, and the impeller is neoprene. Output is 8.9 gpm at 1500 rpm. The ball bearings are permanently lubricated, and the maker also lists washdown and circulation as uses for the pump.

Our take

The 8.9 gpm rating at 1500 rpm tells you the flow you get at that pulley speed, so check it against what your engine or washdown job needs. Bronze body and stainless shafts are well suited to a salty, wet boat.

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.
