Hi, I have 2 maxspect gyre xf130. First one I purchased when it first came out and I purchased another one back in November of 2015. The original xf130 has different parts than the newer one. I need replacement propeller bushings for my original xf130 and coralvue website only sells the newer model bushings. Do you carry the old style propeller bushings?

Thanks,
Kelvin

No, the old style propellers are no longer available. You will need to purchase the rugged propellers instead.

Thank you for the reply. So I tried using the spare propeller from the newer xf130, they do not fit into the shaft of the original model. The original model shaft is not a perfect round shape.

That is correct. The rugged propeller bushings will not fit the classic propellers.

But the link you give for the ruggedized propeller will not fit onto the original model then? From the picture, the propeller bushings are perfect round shape which means they will only fit onto the newer models.

The rugged propellers come with the bushings already.

Yes, but they are round shape bushings and will only fit on to the newer models but the original shafts are not perfectly round. I have spared propellers and propellers bushings from the newer model of the xf130 and they do not fit around the original shaft. So the link you give me for the rugged propellers with bushings will only fit on the newer model and not on the original model.

That is correct. Maxspect discontinued the old propellers and bushings so you need to purchase the rugged propellers now and completely upgrade your pump from the old propellers and bushings to the new rugged ones.
