Customer-Facing Q&A
Q: What does the seal plate do?
A: The seal plate is the structural piece that connects the motor to the pump wet end and supports the area where the shaft seal installs, helping keep everything aligned and sealed.
Q: Will this fix water leaking from the pump near the motor?
A: If the leak is caused by a cracked/warped seal plate or an improper seal seating surface, replacing the seal plate can help. Many leaks in this area are also related to the shaft seal, so inspect both.
Q: Is this an OEM part?
A: Yes—this is an OEM Pentair replacement seal plate, part number 356795.
Q: Do I need special tools to replace it?
A: Typically basic hand tools are sufficient. You’ll need to open the pump, separate the motor from the wet end, and reassemble with proper gasket/seal placement.
Installation Notes
