Sta-Rite C176-59P Pump Casing
This is the C176-59P pump casing for Sta-Rite Dyna-Glas/Dyna-Max Series in-ground pool and spa pumps. A cracked or corroded pump casing is one of the few pump problems that cannot be fixed with a seal kit, since the housing itself is what holds pressure and keeps the internal parts aligned.
This part is usually only replaced after physical damage: a freeze crack, an impact, or stripped mounting threads. Confirm the exact model and horsepower stamped on the old pump, since Sta-Rite reuses similar-looking housings across several different pump sizes in the same family.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need to replace the seal and impeller when I replace this?
Not necessarily, but since the pump has to come fully apart to swap the pump casing, it is a good opportunity to inspect both and replace them if they show wear.
Q: Will this fit a different horsepower pump in the same series?
Not always. Sta-Rite Dyna-Glas/Dyna-Max Series in-ground pool and spa pumps use different pump casing castings across their horsepower range even when they look similar, so match the exact part number.
Q: Does this come with mounting hardware?
This listing is for the pump casing itself. Reuse the original mounting bolts if they are in good condition, or order new ones separately if they are corroded or stripped.
Q: Can a cracked pump casing be repaired with epoxy?
A pressure-holding part like this should be replaced rather than patched. An epoxy repair may hold briefly but is not reliable under the pressure and vibration of normal pump operation.
