Jabsco flexible impellers can be fitted to most makes and models of bronze flexible impeller engine cooling, bilge, transfer and general purpose pumps. These impellers are subjected to rigorous quality processes to ensure reliable, efficient and long-lasting performance.

It is recommended to replace all impellers at least once every year, or sooner, depending on the engine duty. When the installation is correct, an impeller may last for several years, but it is always advisable to stick to a schedule of preventative, rather than corrective, maintenance.

Replacing impellers is an easy task. By removing the end cover screws, the impeller can be removed using either a Jabsco Impeller Removal Tool or channel lock pliers to grip the hub of the impeller. It is important not to use screwdrivers, as they may damage the face of the pump body, causing leaks, and they can be dangerous in confined spaces.

It is always a good idea to carry spare impellers on board in case of emergency. The impeller is one of the most vital components of the engine cooling system and should always be treated as such. Always grease new impellers, as this not only makes it easier to install the impeller into the pump bore, but also provides added protection to the impeller during initial prime.

In summary, the Jabsco Flexible Impeller Kit is a durable and reliable component for a variety of pumping applications. By following the recommended maintenance and replacement schedule, as well as using the proper tools and techniques, users can ensure the long-term performance and efficiency of their engine cooling, bilge, transfer and general purpose pumps.
