Points for abrasive duties

  • Run the pump slower than its maximum: wear rises with speed
  • Choose elastomers for abrasion; Wilden lists cast iron builds with polyurethane, Santoprene, Hytrel, Neoprene and Buna-N
  • Check the particle size against the model; Wilden does not publish a solids limit for every cast iron build
  • Inspect diaphragms and valve balls regularly, since these are the parts that wear

Cast iron is not suitable for acids. For abrasive and corrosive liquids together, stainless steel is usually the compromise. Find all cast iron builds in our iron pump lookup.
