Product details

The Waterway 313-1400 is the shaft slinger for Waterway pool pumps. It is a small rubber ring that fits over the motor shaft, and it does one job well.

Why it matters

Mechanical seals do not fail all at once. They start with a weep, and that water follows the spinning shaft straight toward the motor. The slinger sits in the path, turns with the shaft, and throws the water outward before it can reach the bearings or the windings. It is the last line of defense between a small seal leak and a dead motor.

When to fit one

Any time the pump is apart for a shaft seal, put a new slinger on. An old one goes hard and loses its grip on the shaft, and plenty of motors are rebuilt without one ever going back in. Waterway lists this slinger for the Hi-Flo, Center Discharge and Executive 48 and 56 frame pumps.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

What does a slinger actually do?
It sits on the motor shaft and spins with it. Any water that gets past the mechanical seal is thrown outward by the slinger instead of running along the shaft into the motor bearings.
Which Waterway pumps use it?
Waterway lists 313-1400 for the Hi-Flo, Center Discharge and Executive 48 and 56 frame pumps.
Should I replace it when I do a shaft seal?
Yes. The pump is already open, the part is inexpensive, and an old slinger that has gone hard no longer throws water clear.
Can I run the pump without one?
You can, but you lose the protection. A slow seal weep that would have been thrown clear instead ends up in the motor.
