Jabsco 17370-0001-B Neoprene Impeller, 12 Blade
The Jabsco 17370-0001-B is a genuine Jabsco flexible impeller with a neoprene impeller, supplied as a single impeller kit, bulk packed. It has 12 blades, a 3-3/4 in diameter and a 3-1/2 in width, with a 1 in double flat shaft, epoxy plastic hub. As it turns inside the offset pump body, the blades bend and straighten, drawing liquid in and pushing it out, which is what makes a flexible impeller pump self-priming. It is listed for the Jabsco 17360-1001 and 17970-0100 marine diesel engine cooling pumps. The impeller itself is Jabsco 17370-0001.
Neoprene is the general purpose compound for water, raw water cooling and mildly abrasive liquids. Impellers are wear parts. Replace one when blades are cracked, torn or have taken a permanent set in the curved position, when the pump is slow to prime, or after it has run dry even briefly. Lubricate the new impeller with a little water pump grease before fitting it, and fit a new end cover gasket or O-ring at the same time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which way should the blades bend?
They bend back against the direction of rotation as the impeller is pushed into the body. Turning the shaft in the running direction while pushing makes this easy.
Q: How long does an impeller last?
It depends on hours, temperature and what is being pumped. Many owners replace it every season or at a set number of running hours as insurance.
Q: What causes blades to break off?
Running dry is the main cause. Broken pieces can travel downstream and block coolers or strainers, so find every piece.
Q: Should I grease the new impeller?
Yes, a light coat of water pump grease on the blades and hub helps it survive the first dry seconds before liquid arrives.
