question about Sicce PSK pump

[dgunn]

I just received a pump for my MSX 200 that is missing the internal bushing for the impeller. Can anyone tell me if the bushing is ceramic or just a rubber plug like other pumps. If it is a ceramic bushing does it normally come out?
thanks

The one on the bottom where the magnet sits or on the volute cover?

The bottom one for the end of the shaft is a red, rubber "plug".
The one on the wet side of the volute cover is ceramic/porcelain.

They both come out but the ceramic one is stuck in pretty tight so it doesnt normally come out when taking the cover off. The rubber one comes out with the shaft, but not all the time.

great thanks, the rubber one is the one that is missing, it should be easy to come up with one of those...
thanks for the help

I believe that SWC or MS sells them.

Contact the company that you purchased it from...they should take care of you.

Sorry, bought it used, but I found a rubber plug that fit perfectly and its working great
