Sierra 18-3052 Neoprene Water Pump Impeller, Replaces 47-89982, Fits Mercury/Mariner 20 HP (Model 200) Outboard
The Sierra 18-3052 is a neoprene water pump impeller built to replace the cooling system impeller on Mercury/Mariner 20 hp (model 200) outboard motors. As the rotating component inside the outboard's water pump housing, the impeller draws raw water through the lower unit and pushes it up to the powerhead to cool the engine block and exhaust; a worn, cracked, or brittle impeller reduces water flow and can allow the engine to run hot, so replacing it on schedule protects against overheating damage.
This impeller is molded from neoprene rubber, a material chosen for its resistance to heat, fuel, and oil exposure inside the water pump housing, and it is built with 6 fins to move water efficiently through the pump body. It carries a white color finish and is sized as a direct fit for the water pump housing used on the applicable Mercury/Mariner outboard. Installing the correct impeller for your specific engine and pump housing is important, since impellers are sized and finned differently across outboard models and horsepower ratings.
