Brand: Durco
Description:

The Flowserve PolyChem GRP pump is an engineered polymer composite, overhung chemical process pump designed for maximum corrosion resistance and long service life in demanding chemical applications. Built to handle aggressive acids, alkalis, and chemically charged slurries, the GRP is ideal for processes where metal pumps fail due to corrosion or contamination risk.

Manufactured from high-strength glass-reinforced polymer, the GRP offers outstanding mechanical strength, dimensional stability, and thermal resistance while maintaining a lightweight structure. Its overhung, end-suction configuration allows for easy installation and maintenance, and its materials make it ideal for non-metallic pumping environments where metallic and fluoropolymer-lined pumps are not suitable.

Widely used in chemical manufacturing, wastewater treatment, fertilizer production, and acid recovery systems, the PolyChem GRP is a trusted solution for safe and reliable non-metallic fluid transfer.
