AMT 1560-000-00 Cast Iron Adapter
The AMT 1560-000-00 is the genuine cast iron adapter carried under AMT’s factory description "Adapter XCI 289E MBV to -01". An adapter of this kind is the structural piece that joins the motor to the pump end: it bolts to the motor face on one side and to the pump casing on the other, holds the two concentric to each other, and sets the axial position that determines impeller clearance and seal compression.
That makes it a part you cannot improvise. If the adapter is cracked, corroded through, or has had its register bore damaged, the pump end no longer sits true on the motor. The consequences show up quickly — vibration, a mechanical seal that will not stop weeping, an impeller rubbing the casing, and bearing loads the motor was never designed to carry. Cast iron is used because it is stiff, dimensionally stable and damps vibration far better than a fabricated bracket would.
AMT’s designation indicates this adapter is the version used to bring a 289E build to the -01 configuration. Adapters are model-specific and the register diameters differ between AMT families, so confirm the part number against the parts breakdown for your exact pump before ordering. If you are unsure which configuration you have, send us the nameplate details and we will work it out with you.
