Gaskets

  • E-mail

NAPCO Rotary Gear Pumps come installed with one .016 chamber gasket on the drive side bearing housing/side cover and three .008 inch chamber gaskets on the non-drive side bearing housing/side cover. Efficiency can be improved where operation wear has occurred by removing one of the three .008 inch non-drive side gaskets to tighten clearances and restore operational efficiency. UNLESS ESPECIALLY MODIFIED, NAPCO PUMPS LEAVE THE FACTORY WITH APPROXIMATELY A .008 INCH COMBINED CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE ENDS OF THE GEARS AND ADJACENT BEARING HOUSING SURFACES. High temperature, or other unusual operating conditions, may dictate some variance in gear/housing clearances.

Gear Pumps from NAPCO

The Napco Rotary Gear Pump has been developed by NAPCO to provide you the very best pump at the very best price. The bearings and seals ride on especially hardened and ground shafts to prolong operational life. Discharge ports have been designed, tested, and incorporated into the bearing end plates to further maximize efficient, operating life, and to lessen product shear.
