Product details
The Hayward SPX1250XZ2C is the genuine pump motor shaft seal assembly for the model 5060 cleaner booster pump.
What the shaft seal does
Every wet end has one opening it cannot simply gasket shut: the hole the motor shaft turns through. The shaft seal closes that gap with two lapped faces, one riding on the shaft and one fixed in the housing, pressed together by a spring. It is the hardest working seal in the pump and the one that eventually wears.
Reading the leak
Water running out from between the wet end and the motor is a shaft seal. Water weeping from the seam where the two housing halves bolt together is the housing gasket. Getting that right before you order saves a second teardown, and left alone a failed shaft seal will put water into the motor bearings.
Fitting
Replace both halves of the seal as the assembly supplies them. A new rotating face run against an old seat will not last. While the pump is open, check the impeller and the housing o-ring, since the labor to reach them is already done.
