Sta-Rite 17351-0009 Water Slinger
The Sta-Rite 17351-0009 is a replacement water slinger, a small flinger disc mounted on the motor shaft just behind the seal. It spins with the shaft and throws off any moisture that gets past the seal before it can reach the motor bearing.
A cracked or missing slinger will not cause a leak on its own, but it removes a layer of protection for the motor if the seal ever does start to weep. Replace it any time the pump is opened for a seal job, since it is inexpensive insurance against motor bearing damage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What happens if the slinger is missing or damaged?
The pump will usually still run, but the motor bearing loses a layer of protection if the seal ever starts to weep, which can shorten motor life.
Q: Where exactly does this mount?
On the motor shaft, positioned just behind the mechanical seal, between the seal and the motor bearing.
Q: Do I need to replace this every time I service the pump?
It is good practice to replace it whenever the shaft is exposed for a seal job, since it is inexpensive and hard to reach again without another teardown.
