The Sherwood 09000K is a neoprene impeller kit with a 2-7/16 inch diameter and 7/8 inch width, made for a 5/8 inch shaft. The kit comes with the impeller, a gasket, an o-ring and a technical service guide. Neoprene is elastic and springs back well, and the maker gives it a maximum of 130°F. One impeller can fit more than one pump application, so check the fit against your own pump.

Our take

Neoprene here is rated to 130°F at most, so keep raw water temperatures under that. The kit includes the gasket and o-ring with the impeller, which means a changeout comes with its own seals rather than a separate parts hunt.

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.
