It packages the seal and gaskets a pump needs when it is opened for a seal change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat the kit is for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA pool pump keeps water out of the motor with a shaft seal running between the wet end and the motor shaft. That seal wears, and when it goes the first sign is usually a drip or a wet patch under the pump rather than a dramatic failure. Left alone, the water finds the motor bearings, and a cheap seal job turns into a motor replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy gaskets come with it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGetting to the seal means separating the housing, which disturbs the gaskets. Compressed gaskets take a set and seldom seal as well the second time, so they belong in the same job as the seal itself. That is the logic behind selling them as one kit rather than as separate parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConfirm your pump model against the fitment listed above before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sta-Rite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48634387955924,"sku":"STA-101-5052","price":63.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_44d31c8a-d2ae-4f19-9087-3453cd8018b5.jpg?v=1788828993","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/seal-gasket-kit","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
