Jabsco 18706-0000 Retaining Ring
The Jabsco 18706-0000 is a genuine Jabsco retaining ring, supplied one per bag. Jabsco uses this part number on specific models only, so match it against the parts list for the model number on your pump plate before ordering.
Retaining rings snap into a machined groove to locate a bearing, shaft or seal and stop it moving along its axis. A ring that has been sprung open, distorted or corroded will not hold properly, so fit a new one whenever the pump is rebuilt. Use the correct ring pliers, and check the ring is fully seated in its groove all the way round before reassembly.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I reuse the old ring?
It is better not to. Removing a ring can spread it, and a weakened ring may not hold the bearing in place.
Q: What tool do I need?
Retaining ring pliers of the right type, internal or external, sized for the ring.
Q: How do I know it is seated?
It should sit fully down in its groove all the way round with no gap or tilt.
Q: What happens if it fails?
The bearing or shaft can move, which damages the seal and can let the impeller rub.
