Jabsco 18012-0000 Idler Shaft for 18000 Series
The Jabsco 18012-0000 is the genuine 316 stainless steel idler shaft for Jabsco 18000 series gear pumps, including 18000-0000 and 18000-0001. It carries the driven gear and runs in the carbon sleeve bearings. The 18250 series uses idler shaft 18012-0010.
Jabsco 18000 and 18250 series gear pumps have glass filled epoxy bodies and gears, 316 stainless steel wearplates and shafts and carbon sleeve bearings, and they are used to transfer caustics, acids, detergents, inks and other liquids up to about 100 PSI. Worn internal parts show up as lower pressure and flow, so inspect the gears, wearplates, bearings and thrust plates together at every overhaul and never run the pump dry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can a gear pump run dry?
No. The carbon bearings and gears rely on the liquid for lubrication and cooling.

The 18000 and 18250 series are rated for up to about 100 PSI.
Q: What should be replaced together?
Gears, wearplates, sleeve bearings and thrust plates wear together, so inspect all of them at overhaul.
Q: Are 18000 and 18250 parts interchangeable?
Some are, some are not. Gears, shafts and bodies differ between the series, so check your model number.
