Belt Driven Seawater Pump ( With Plastic Body ) Changes.

Models

All MCM, MIE models with Belt Driven Seawater Pump with plastic body.

Change

The original pump has been called the 2-piece body because it used a cover with gaskets and a wear plate.

A 1-piece body is now used in production and is available for servicing most of the older seawater pumps with the 2-piece body. This new 1-piece body gives 20% more water flow at higher engine RPM’s than the older 2- piece pump and it eliminates 2 gaskets, 1 wear plate and the cover.

Replacement body, P/N 47-72774A40, for the 2-piece body pump has been made No Longer Available. To help you service both body types of seawater pumps, several kits have been made available. These kits and their use are listed on the reverse side.
