Yamada 773167 Kynar Ball Guide for NDP-25
The Yamada 773167 is a genuine Yamada ball guide, Kynar (PVDF), used in NDP-25 series air-operated double diaphragm (AODD) pumps. It is the molded cage that keeps a check ball centered over its seat while still letting it lift freely with every stroke. A cracked or worn ball guide lets the ball sit off-center, which causes an incomplete seal and lost flow.
Genuine Yamada replacement parts are machined and molded to the original factory tolerances, so fit, alignment and seal engagement match the component being replaced. Two per pump (one per check ball). Always compare the exact part number against your pump's nameplate before ordering, since Yamada varies internal components by both pump size and body material / elastomer combination.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I confirm this is the correct part for my pump?
Match the part number to your pump's nameplate model and suffix, since Yamada varies this component by both pump size and body material across the model range.
Q: Does this part need to match the pump body material?
Yes. Mixing dissimilar materials in the wetted path can cause galvanic corrosion or chemical incompatibility, so match this part to the body material and elastomer combination already on the pump.
Q: What should I check before reassembling around this part?
Confirm mating surfaces are clean and undamaged, replace the gaskets or O-rings it seals against rather than reusing them, and torque fasteners to the factory sequence and spec rather than just snugging them down.
Q: What causes this kind of structural part to need replacement?
Wear from repeated contact with a moving component, corrosion or chemical attack from the pumped fluid, or physical damage from an impact or overtightened fastener during a previous rebuild.
