Jabsco 17612-0001 Full Thickness Cam
The Jabsco 17612-0001 is a genuine Jabsco full thickness cam. The cam is the fixed, crescent shaped insert held inside the pump body by a cam screw, and as the impeller turns it squeezes the vanes on the discharge side to push liquid out, which is also what makes the pump self-priming. Jabsco uses this part number on specific pump models only, so match it against the parts list for the model number on your pump plate before ordering.
Cams wear and corrode where the vanes ride over them, and a loose cam screw lets the cam shift and lets air in. Replace the cam when its face is grooved or pitted, seal the top of the cam and the cam screw threads on assembly, and make sure the cam thickness matches the gasket used, since full and half thickness cams take different gaskets.
