Primetime Self-Priming Marine Centrifugal Pump – 115V 60Hz, 316 Stainless Steel

The Primetime Pump is a premium self-priming centrifugal pump engineered for applications where suction lift and reliable priming are essential. Originally developed for marine air conditioning systems prone to air-lock, this pump has proven itself in the field with boat builders, OEMs, and marine technicians as a dependable solution across a wide range of onboard and industrial applications.

Constructed with all 316 stainless steel components, the Primetime Pump offers outstanding durability and corrosion resistance when pumping seawater or chemical compounds. Its semi-open stainless steel impeller and investment-cast housing provide consistent performance, while the carbon/ceramic/Viton mechanical seal ensures long-lasting reliability.

With the ability to self-prime and pass air through the system, the Primetime Pump simplifies installation by allowing mounting above the waterline or in accessible locations without sacrificing suction performance.

Each unit includes an ISO 8846 ignition-protected motor, painted white and supplied with an extended cord and plug, making it a safe and practical choice for marine environments.
