- Plug and o-ring together The seal comes with the plug, so you are not chasing a separate o-ring.
- Boost-Rite booster pump Listed in the Pentair Boost-Rite booster pump parts breakdown.
- The winterizing part The drain plug is what comes out to empty the volute before a freeze, and it is the part most often lost or cross threaded.

Product details
The Pentair ZBR12160 is the drain plug and o-ring kit for the Boost-Rite universal booster pump. It is the genuine Pentair part, supplied with the seal already matched to the plug.
Why this part goes
The drain plug is the piece that comes out every fall to empty the volute before a freeze, and it takes the abuse that goes with that. Threads get crossed, the head rounds off, the plug ends up in the grass, and the o-ring flattens after a few seasons of being squeezed and released. Once the seal is done the pump weeps at the plug and can draw air on the suction side, which shows up as a booster that primes badly or runs noisy.
Before you order
Confirm your booster against the Pentair Boost-Rite parts breakdown. The kit covers the plug and the o-ring only; other volute seals are separate parts.
