| Notes regarding Wilden plastic construction pump. Wilden "Champ" was a name given during the introduction of the plastic
pumps - it is still true however the term is no longer commonly used. It indicated
that the pump was constructed of thermoplastic and was not specific to the material of
construction. Today, a very descriptive model number system is used that describes
every component detail is in place. When ordering replacement parts please be as
detailed as you can - this will help both of us.
Solid Teflon o-rings for plastic pumps have been replaced by Teflon® encapsulated Viton® o-rings. This
change improves the sealing ability of joints and a softer more forgiving seal. |
