Frequently Asked Questions

No. It is specified for Dura-Flo 1800 (430 cc) and Dura-Flo 2400 (580 cc) lowers and certain XL variants with the same 2″ intake design. Always verify against your exact lower assembly diagram.

Hard priming, inconsistent flow, backflow seen in the suction line, or a damaged/flattened ball or seat upon inspection are common indicators.

Yes—102974 is the stainless-steel intake ball for these lowers. For highly corrosive materials, consult your pump manual for alternate material options if available.

You can replace just the ball (102974) if the seat and housing are undamaged. If the seat is worn or pitted, replace it to ensure proper sealing and pump performance.

Cross-check the part number in your pump’s parts manual and verify the lower’s intake-valve schematic calls for a 2″ stainless intake ball. When in doubt, share your model/serial with support for confirmation.
