3/8" Plastic Pumps

3/8" Plastic Pumps

3/8" Plastic Pumps are robust, corrosion-resistant pumping solutions engineered for low-to-medium flow transfer, metering, and recirculation of aggressive chemicals, high-purity fluids, or mildly abrasive slurries. Characterized by their 3/8-inch inlet and outlet connections (typically NPT), these pumps are constructed from durable engineered thermoplastics such as polypropylene (PP), PVDF (Kynar®), or PTFE (Teflon®). This construction offers superior resistance to a vast spectrum of acids, bases, solvents, and halogens, where metallic pumps would rapidly corrode or introduce contamination, making them indispensable in chemical processing, electroplating, and pharmaceutical applications. Common designs include magnetic drive centrifugal, diaphragm, or peristaltic pumps that prioritize safe, leak-free operation.

These pumps are the workhorse for a wide range of industrial and OEM applications requiring reliable, low-maintenance chemical handling, such as chemical dosing, filtration loops, equipment washdown, and pilot plant processes. Their plastic construction not only ensures compatibility with difficult fluids but also reduces weight and minimizes scaling or fouling. The 3/8" size offers an optimal balance between flow capacity and precise control, making these pumps a versatile and critical component for maintaining process integrity and safety in demanding corrosive or ultrapure environments.
