Quick overview
- Genuine Polaris part P85 is the factory seal plate housing o-ring, not a generic ring.
- Fits the PB4-60Q Halcyon The booster pump that drives a pressure side cleaner.
- Seal plate housing Sits between the volute and the seal plate, where the two halves of the wet end meet.
- Stops a housing leak Water tracking out of the joint between the volute and the seal plate points straight at this o-ring.
- Replace it on reassembly Any time the wet end comes apart, the o-ring goes back new rather than reused.
- Pairs with a shaft seal If you are in this far, the ceramic and spring shaft seal is worth doing at the same time.

Product details
The Polaris P85 is the seal plate housing o-ring for the PB4-60Q Halcyon booster pump. It is the genuine Polaris part.
What it seals
The wet end of the booster pump is two pieces, the volute and the seal plate, drawn together around this o-ring. Everything the pump pushes toward the cleaner passes through that joint, so a ring that has flattened, hardened or been nicked on reassembly shows up as a steady drip or a spray from the seam between the two halves.
Fitting
Fit a fresh o-ring any time the housing is opened. An o-ring that has taken the shape of the groove will not reseal reliably once it has been disturbed, and it is the cheapest part in the pump. While the wet end is apart, look at the shaft seal too, since replacing both together avoids a second teardown.
