Slinger — Water Pump
Application: EMD water pump assemblies
Part of our Water pump product line
The Slinger — Water Pump is identified by EMD Part No. 8042969 and DLW Part No. 16241447. EMD parts references specifically identify 8042969 as the Slinger Water Pump, while EMD component listings also associate 40089901 with this water-pump slinger reference. The component is part of the EMD water-pump assembly and should be identified using the correct EMD and DLW part numbers and the applicable water-pump configuration.
How This Part Works
The Slinger — Water Pump is a component of the EMD water-pump assembly. It is installed as part of the pump's rotating and sealing arrangement and works with the associated water-pump shaft and sealing components. Its condition should be checked during water-pump inspection and maintenance as part of the complete pump assembly.
Signs It's Time to Replace
- Visible wear or damage: physical deterioration of the water-pump slinger should be assessed during inspection
- Surface damage: scoring, deformation, or other abnormal surface condition should be investigated
- Corrosion or deterioration: visible corrosion or material deterioration should be evaluated for serviceability
- Abnormal condition around the shaft and sealing area: the slinger and associated components should be inspected when abnormalities are identified in this area
- Water-pump leakage concerns: leakage around the associated sealing arrangement should prompt inspection of the slinger and related water-pump components
Apex focuses on EMD engine components and water-pump system parts for EMD applications. The Slinger — Water Pump is identified by EMD Part No. 8042969 and DLW Part No. 16241447, allowing customers to source the component using established EMD and DLW references. The specific part-number identification helps distinguish the water-pump slinger from other slinger components used elsewhere in EMD engine systems.
