Description
The Xylem-Bell & Gossett P12422 Wick Retainer is a small mechanical support component designed to secure the oil wick inside circulator pump assemblies. It is built to maintain correct wick positioning so lubrication is consistently delivered to the bearing area during pump operation within HVAC systems. It is used in hydronic pump units where stable oil distribution is required for smooth rotation and reduced internal friction. The part is installed in the pump oil well section supporting continuous lubrication flow and preventing wick movement under vibration. It works a key role in maintaining performance in heating, and cooling circulation equipment systems.
