Description

The Pentair J3-2 Copper Seal Plate Insert is a genuine OEM component designed to maintain proper sealing within compatible pool pump assemblies. Installed in the seal plate, this insert provides a precise seat for the mechanical shaft seal, ensuring consistent alignment and leak prevention.

Constructed from durable copper, it handles heat and friction generated at the seal interface, helping extend the life of the shaft seal and surrounding components. This insert is commonly used in Sta-Rite PLBC series pumps as well as older Dura-Glas and Max-E-Glas models.

Its press-fit design allows for secure installation into the seal plate, making it an essential part of any seal rebuild or pump overhaul.

Pro Tip

When replacing the seal plate insert, always install a new shaft seal and apply a small amount of silicone to secure the insert and prevent movement.

Installation Tips

Disconnect power and disassemble pump before installation. Press insert evenly into seal plate and apply a thin bead of silicone if needed. Always replace shaft seal during service.
