DESCRIPTION
Taco 1600 Series Pump Repair Kit — 1600-868CRP
The Taco 1600 pump repair kit is a direct-fit replacement for Taco 1600 Series in-line circulator pumps, referenced as Taco 1600-868CRP. Supplied complete with the mechanical seal, the machined bronze shaft sleeve 1600-205RP, the gasket set and the left-hand thread mounting bolt — every wear part the rebuild takes, in one box. Built to OEM-equivalent standards or higher. Unlike the original, our shaft sleeve is machined from solid bronze rather than die-formed from sheet — a truer, heavier wear surface that gives the seal a longer service life.
