Hayward SPX2600E5 Seal Plate (Super Pump / Max-Flo)
Hayward SPX2600E5 is a genuine replacement seal plate used on select Hayward Super Pump and Max-Flo pool pumps. The seal plate mounts between the motor and the pump housing and supports the mechanical shaft seal. Replacing a cracked or warped seal plate can stop leaks at the motor/shaft area and help restore proper wet-end alignment.

Maintenance Tips

- Winterize properly; freeze damage is a common cause of cracked seal plates and housings.
- Keep pump lid O-rings clean and lightly lubricated to reduce suction-side air leaks.
- After any wet-end service, recheck for leaks once the system reaches normal operating pressure.
