All PowerFlo pumps share the same back (mechanical) end to help with ease of order and replacing parts.
Both the pinion assembly and main shaft run on individually replaceable bearings to speed maintenance and reduce costs.
Each pump has a specific Head (water end). If you are not sure which model you have, please measure the bore. This is the brass liner that the cup move backwards and frontward in.
