Oberdorfer 10817 Bracket Kit – Westinghouse 48 Frame Motor Mount for N9000 Series Gear Pumps
The Oberdorfer 10817 is a Westinghouse 48 frame motor mounting bracket kit engineered to pair Oberdorfer's N991, N992, N993, and N999 bronze rotary gear pump ends with a compatible 48-frame electric motor. Instead of sourcing a custom mounting solution, technicians and OEM integrators can use this bracket kit to create a complete, motor-driven gear pump assembly that bolts together with factory-fit precision. It's built around Oberdorfer's proven N9000 series platform, a lineup widely used for transferring oils, fuels, coolants, and other light-to-medium viscosity fluids in demanding equipment applications.
Because the bracket is purpose-matched to the 48 frame footprint, it aligns the pump shaft and motor shaft correctly without the guesswork or fabrication that generic adapters often require. This keeps the coupling true, reduces vibration and premature seal wear, and shortens the time it takes to get a pump-and-motor package into service. The kit is a practical choice for anyone rebuilding an existing Oberdorfer pump unit, replacing a worn or damaged bracket, or assembling a new pump-motor combination from individual components.
While Oberdorfer pumps are well known in marine and boat-building circles, the 10817 bracket kit itself serves a much broader range of uses. It shows up in industrial fluid transfer systems, agricultural equipment, lubrication skids, food and beverage processing lines, and general OEM machine building wherever a compact bronze gear pump needs to be coupled to a standard 48-frame motor. For anyone maintaining or specifying Oberdorfer N9000 series pump equipment, the 10817 offers a straightforward, purpose-built way to keep that motor-to-pump connection solid and reliable.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What pumps is the Oberdorfer 10817 bracket kit compatible with?
It's designed to mount Oberdorfer N991, N992, N993, and N999 bronze gear pump ends onto a Westinghouse 48 frame motor.
Q: Is the Oberdorfer 10817 only used in marine applications?
No. While Oberdorfer is well known for marine pumps, this bracket kit is used across industrial, agricultural, and general OEM fluid-handling equipment wherever a 48-frame motor drives a compatible gear pump.
Q: Do I need additional hardware to install the 10817 bracket kit?
The kit provides the mounting bracket needed to couple the pump and motor. Always confirm your specific motor and pump combination before ordering to ensure a complete fit.
Q: Can the 10817 bracket kit replace a damaged or worn mounting bracket?
Yes. It's commonly used to replace a cracked, corroded, or worn-out bracket on an existing Oberdorfer N9000 series pump and motor assembly.
Q: What motor frame size does the 10817 require?
It is engineered specifically for a Westinghouse 48 frame motor and is not a universal fit for other frame sizes.
