Same seal, same size, same fit — what changes is the material and how it’s built. All five seals below are the PS-100 for a 5/8″ shaft, and all five fit the same pumps. They differ in two ways. The build: a molded carbon face or a premium carbon face machined from solid stock. The materials: a ceramic or silicon carbide seat, and Nitrile or Viton rubber. Pick the one that suits your water.
Seal Material Best For This Water 100c — this seal Molded carbon face, ceramic seat, Nitrile rubber Normal chlorine, normal temperature, clear water.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Seal House Type 166
Our Type 166 configuration combines the best design elements we’ve refined over the years to deliver superior reliability and performance.Key advantages include:
-
Crimped rotary face with positive drive — securely held in place to prevent dislodgement during installation.
-
Full metal retainer with positive drive — ensures strength and long-term durability.
-
Full rubber bellows construction — provides complete sealing along both the shaft and face, rather than relying on a small O-ring or partial gasket.
-
Molded carbon face (never plastic) — delivers extended service life.
Compatibility & upgrade:
The Type 166 is designed to replace most small seal types commonly used in pool and spa applications, including Type 16, G, A, 6, AV, 2100, and more. Even in its basic form, this seal is a significant upgrade over standard “pool” seals typically available on the market.
