Keep your Englander pellet stove's auger system sealed and running smoothly with this factory-spec nylon bearing gasket. Sold as a 2-pack, this OEM-style replacement fits the vast majority of Englander pellet stove models manufactured after 2001 and is the correct part to reach for when you notice fuel or ash migrating past the auger shaft, increased noise at the auger motor, or visible wear on the original gasket.
The auger bearing gasket sits at the point where the auger shaft exits the firebox or feed tube housing. Its job is to form a tight seal that keeps pellet dust, ash, and combustion gases away from the auger motor and bearing assembly. Over time, heat cycling, abrasion from passing pellets, and normal wear cause the original gasket to compress, crack, or distort -- leading to airflow leaks, feed inconsistencies, and premature bearing wear.
Englander part number PU-ABGN replaces that gasket with a durable nylon piece machined to the exact OEM dimensions: 3-1/2" x 3-1/2" square, 1/16" thick, with a 5/8" center bore sized for the standard Englander auger shaft. The white nylon material resists the moderate heat and abrasion present at the auger exit point without the brittleness of harder plastics.
3-1/2" x 3-1/2" square, 1/16" thick, with a 5/8" center hole -- matches the factory spec for post-2001 Englander auger assemblies.
White nylon resists heat and pellet-dust abrasion at the auger shaft exit point, outlasting felt or foam alternatives.
Covers dozens of Englander 25-series and 55-series pellet stove models built after 2001 -- one part number for most of the lineup.
Includes two gaskets per order. Replace both auger shaft seal points at once, or keep one as an on-hand spare for fast future service.
The auger bearing gasket is typically accessible after removing the auger motor and extracting the auger shaft. Clean the mating surfaces of any old gasket material, pellet dust, or adhesive residue before seating the new gasket. No sealant is required or recommended -- the nylon material forms a dry mechanical seal. Torque fasteners evenly to avoid distorting the thin gasket.
Englander recommends inspecting the auger assembly, including the bearing gasket, during each annual cleaning. Pellet stoves that run for extended daily hours -- common in full-time heating applications -- may benefit from inspecting this gasket at mid-season as well. Catching a worn gasket early prevents pellet dust from reaching the motor windings.
The PU-ABGN fits the following Englander models (post-2001 production unless noted):
If your model number is not listed above, compare the auger shaft diameter (5/8") and the mounting face dimensions (3-1/2" x 3-1/2") against your existing gasket before ordering.
