Jabsco 3255-0000 2/3 Cam
This Jabsco 3255-0000 2/3 cam is the offset cam block that pinches the impeller vanes as they pass, which is what actually creates the pumping action in a flexible impeller pump. The cam face wears flat over time and loses the correct eccentricity, and the impeller can no longer seal fully against it.
Jabsco has used this part across a range of pump models over the years without always changing the part number to match, so the safest way to confirm fit is against the number stamped or molded on your existing part, or the number on your pump data plate, rather than by the pump model alone. It is supplied as a genuine replacement, made to the same material specification and dimensions as the original part it replaces.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this a genuine Jabsco part?
Yes, it is a genuine Jabsco replacement, not an aftermarket copy.
Q: Should I replace anything else at the same time?
Since the pump is already open for this repair, it is worth inspecting the mating gasket, O-rings and fasteners nearby and replacing any that show wear.
Q: What causes this part to fail?
Normal wear from continuous duty, age hardening of rubber components, or a dry-run event are the most common causes.
Q: Do you sell a kit that includes this part with the related gasket or seal?
If a combination kit exists for this pump we carry it separately. Send us your pump data plate and we can point you to it.
Not sure this is the right part? Send us a Picture of the Pump Plate on your pump and the CLR Marine team will confirm the correct cam.
