Engineered to Endure: Why High Chrome White Iron Excels in Abrasive Pumping Applications

In environments where abrasion is relentless—mining, manure handling, wastewater processing, and industrial slurry applications—pump failure isn’t just inconvenient; it’s costly. That’s why material choice matters, and why Cornell’s high chrome white iron construction stands out as a superior solution.
Cornell STX Self-Priming Pumps—Truly Efficient by Design

When selecting a self-priming pump, it’s easy to focus on specs like flow and lift. But in real-world applications, efficiency is what drives long-term success. Cornell’s STX-Series pumps are engineered to deliver not just performance—but highly efficient, reliable operation that reduces costs and downtime over the life of the pump.
Z-Series
Z-series centrifugal pumps’ robust build and higher efficiencies position the series to offer better results than standard ANSI pumps. Easy access to parts and Cornell quality since 1946 make the Z-Series an easy choice for many industrial and municipal applications.
Cornell History
The story of Cornell starts in 1946 when 5 people working at Pacific Pump Company decided to head out on their own. Having a complete service department, they became familiar with what most of the common pump failures were. Many motor failures came from pressure spikes during operation, overloading capacity and water related failures of the pump end motor bearings. With many parts in stock and facilities to fabricate the rest, Cornell would service any model of pump.
