High-pressure plunger pumps are ideal for a variety of applications

High pressure plunger pumps have a variety of features that make them ideal for various applications. The cylinder, which contains the plunger, is generally made of a stainless steel or iron material, and the head, or stuffing box, is made of a variety of materials. These materials are chosen according to their wear resistance and compatibility with the media being pumped.

High-pressure plunger pumps are used for many different applications, including hydrodemolition and cleaning. They can also be used in vehicles, such as car washes, for industrial applications, and for hydrostatic testing. These pumps also have the advantage of being corrosion-resistant, since they are made from forged steel or coated steel alloys.

Plastic components are vulnerable to the elements. When exposed to UV rays, high pressure, and temperature changes, they can deteriorate quickly. They are also not compatible with most chemicals. This makes plastic pumps impractical for most commercial applications. The costs involved in maintaining and repairing them will be high and operators will lose revenue.
