The Jabsco 2235-0000 is a genuine Jabsco wear plate for Jabsco flexible (rubber) impeller pumps. The wear plate sits at the back of the pumping chamber behind the impeller, giving the blades a smooth, hard surface to seal against as they turn. That tight seal is what lets a flexible impeller pump create suction, self-prime and deliver its rated flow.
Sand, silt and running dry slowly score the wear plate. Once it is grooved, water slips past the blades, flow drops and new impellers wear out faster. Replacing a scored wear plate during an impeller change restores the pump's efficiency and gives the new impeller a smooth surface to run against.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I tell if the wear plate needs replacing?
Run a fingernail across it. If you feel grooves or see a ring worn where the blades ride, it should be replaced.
Q: Can I flip the wear plate over instead of replacing it?
Some plates can be reversed as a temporary fix, but a new plate is the dependable repair, especially if the back side is also worn.
Q: What causes wear plate scoring?
Sand and silt in the water, running the pump dry, and continuing to run a damaged impeller are the most common causes.
Q: Is there anything to watch for during installation?
Make sure the plate is seated fully and correctly aligned on its locating pin or notch before fitting the impeller.
