got a small hydraulic circuit that don’t need anything fancy. what’s this 197 series pump really meant for
Question by: Chad L on Feb 24, 2026, 8:53 AM
For small to medium displacement hydraulic circuits, it’s a Permco gear pump built to move hydraulic fluid reliably in tougher industrial service. The sleeve bushing setup supports the gear set consistently, which helps with smooth flow and dimensional stability in moderate pressure duty cycles.

I'm looking to replace a gear pump on an older piece of equipment. How can I be sure this Permco pump will fit without having to make a bunch of modifications?

Installation depends on confirming the mounting configuration matches your existing pump. The product description notes this 197 Series pump is compatible with tandem mounting, so check if your current setup uses a similar arrangement.

Does this pump work in a tandem setup, or is it strictly a standalone unit?
Question by: Cheryl W on May 29, 2025, 6:38 AM
Tandem mounting is supported. There's an alternate part number associated with this pump that references a matched gear motor section, so it's built with that kind of configuration in mind. If you're putting together a tandem circuit, that pairing is something worth looking into when spec'ing out your system.
