The Jabsco 22626-0000 is a genuine Jabsco mechanical seal assembly for Jabsco pumps that list this part. The mechanical seal stops liquid from escaping along the rotating shaft, using precision-lapped seal faces held together by spring pressure while the shaft turns.
A leaking seal shows up as drips from the pump's weep hole or along the shaft, and if ignored the leak can reach the bearings or motor and turn a small repair into a big one. Replacing the seal assembly at the first sign of leakage, or during any major rebuild, keeps the pump dry and running reliably.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know the seal is failing?
Liquid dripping from the weep hole or around the shaft behind the pump body is the classic sign of a worn mechanical seal.
Q: Can a seal be damaged by running dry?
Yes. Seal faces depend on liquid for cooling and lubrication, and even a short dry run can crack or score them.
Q: What care is needed during installation?
Keep the seal faces perfectly clean, do not touch them with bare fingers, and lubricate only as the pump manual directs.
Q: Should I check the shaft when changing the seal?
Yes. A grooved or pitted shaft can damage a new seal, so replace the shaft if it is worn.
