At 1-1/2 inch Wilden builds cast iron pumps in two forms. The clamped P4 and XPS4 are the lighter, simpler pumps. The bolted P420, P430, PS420, XPS420 and XPS430 give more flow and a solids rating. Together Wilden lists 102 cast iron builds at this size.

Three things worth noticing
On the cast iron P4 the PTFE build is full stroke, and Wilden lists it above the Santoprene build on both flow and lift. That is not the usual pattern, so check the exact build rather than assuming PTFE costs performance
The bolted pumps pass solids up to 0.25 inch (6.4 mm); Wilden does not publish a solids figure for the clamped P4 and XPS4
XPS models have an aluminum air side and reach 220 to 225 °F (104 to 107 °C); P and PS models stop at 175 °F (79 °C)
Build counts: P4 30, XPS4 22, XPS420 21, P420 12, XPS430 11, P430 5 and a single PS420. Neoprene is the most common diaphragm on the cast iron P4 (9 builds), which suits dirty water and general duties.
If your 1-1/2 inch pump is a clamped P4 and you need more flow, a bolted XPS420 adds around 50 gpm at the same port size.
