Slurry pumps engineered for South Africa's toughest duties

About slurry pumps
Slurry pumps move abrasive solid–liquid mixtures: tailings, mill discharge, flotation feed, dense-media separation, and hydraulic transport of crushed ore. The wrong impeller alloy or liner choice can cut wear-life by 50% — so brand, configuration, and aftermarket support matter as much as the headline price.
