Q: Is 950-1258BRP compatible with all Taco pumps?

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect at each pump service for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage.

• Measure internal clearance with feeler gauges; replace if tolerance is exceeded.

• Clean all mating surfaces before installation to ensure proper alignment.

• Avoid over-torquing mounting hardware — keep alignment true to prevent galling.

• Store spare rings in a dry, clean environment to prevent surface oxidation or damage.
