APC APCK1051 Pump Repair Kit -- Sta-Rite Dura-Glas / Maxi-Glas (1998 to Present)
OEM-equivalent service kit for the redesigned 1998-and-newer Dura-Glas and Maxi-Glas wet-ends.
The APC APCK1051 (legacy P/N APCKIT54 / GO-KIT54) is the service kit for Sta-Rite Dura-Glas and Maxi-Glas pumps manufactured 1998 to present. Sta-Rite redesigned the seal plate in 1998, so this kit only fits the post-1998 wet-end. Pre-1998 Dura-Glas / Maxi-Glas pumps take the APCK1057 family.

How do I tell if my pump is pre-1998 or post-1998?
Sta-Rite redesigned the seal plate and bolt pattern in 1998. Count the bolts on the seal plate and check the manufacture date sticker on the motor. If you cannot read the date, photograph the seal plate and compare against the Sta-Rite exploded diagram for both eras before ordering.
What is the difference between APCK1051 and APCK1051A?
APCK1051A upgrades the standard Buna-N shaft seal to a Premium Viton (FKM) seal that lasts roughly twice as long and resists salt and ozone attack. Worth the upgrade for salt pools, ozone-equipped pads, or pumps that run 8+ hours a day.
Can I install this myself?
Yes. Disconnect power at the breaker, split the wet-end from the motor, replace every part in the kit, lubricate O-rings with pool-grade silicone, and torque the bolts in a star pattern across three or four passes.
