{"product_id":"seal-plate-2","title":"Hayward Seal Plate for Super II Pump","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Hayward SPX3020E is the seal plate for Super II pumps, also listed as SP3020-E. It is the molded plastic plate that bolts between the motor and the pump body and carries the shaft seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it does\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEverything the pump has to keep separate meets at this plate: wet volute on one side, motor and bearings on the other. The plate holds the stationary ceramic half of the shaft seal, so if it is cracked, warped from a dry run, or the seal seat is scored, water works its way past even a brand new seal and ends up in the motor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHayward lists it for the Super II SP3000 and SP3000X, and it also appears in the parts breakdowns for the Heldor EZ-Flo and the Leslie Hydramax II pumps from SP-LE40010 through SP-LE40019.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBefore you order\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer information supplied for this part is not consistent about horsepower. One listing gives 2 HP and 3 HP, another gives 2-1\/2 HP and 3 HP. Rather than pick by horsepower, check that SPX3020E is the seal plate called out for your specific pump. While the pump is open, plan on a new shaft seal too, since it is sold separately and there is no reason to reuse the old one.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48626391220436,"sku":"HAY-101-2074","price":68.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_787c1c54-b6c4-4fa1-b721-4c2e2b869222.png?v=1788709718","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/seal-plate-2","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
