Chemical Resistance Chart

Chemical Resistance Data

These recommendations are based upon information from material suppliers and careful examination of available

published information and are believed to be accurate. However, since the resistance of metals, plastics and elastomers

can be affected by concentration, temperature, presence of other chemicals and other factors, this information should be

considered as a general guide rather than an unqualified guarantee. Ultimately, the customer must determine the

suitability of the pump used in various solutions.

All recommendations assume ambient temperatures unless otherwise noted.

RATINGS - CHEMICAL EFFECT

FOOTNOTES

A: No effect - Excellent

1. P.V.C. - Satisfactory to 72˚ F.

B: Minor effect - Good

2. Polypropylene - Satisfactory to 72˚ F.

C: Moderate effect - Fair

3. Polypropylene - Satisfactory to 120˚ F.

D: Severe effect - Not Recommended

4. Buna-N - Satisfactory for “O” Rings

5. Polyacetal - Satisfactory to 72˚ F.

6. Ceramag - Satisfactory to 72˚ F.

The ratings for these materials are based upon the chemical resistance only. Added consideration must be given to pump

selections when the chemical is abrasive, viscous in nature, or has a Specific Gravity greater than 1.1
