Slurry Tank Pump Solutions: Built for Thick, Abrasive, Heavy-Duty Jobs 2025
When you’re dealing with abrasive slurries or thick sludge in a tank or pit, not just any pump will do. You need a slurry tank pump that’s tough, efficient, and reliable enough to handle harsh materials without constant maintenance or clogging.
At MultiTorque, we supply and service slurry tank pumps that are purpose-built for mining, wastewater treatment, construction, food processing, and heavy industry. Our pumps handle the mess, so your operation can keep moving.
What Is a Slurry Tank Pump?
A slurry tank pump is a specialized pump designed to move liquid mixtures with high solid content from tanks, sumps, or containment vessels. These pumps are engineered to withstand abrasive wear, high viscosity, and corrosive materials, often operating in tough conditions for extended periods.
Slurry tank pumps are used to transfer:
-
Mining slurry and tailings
-
Wastewater with suspended solids
-
Industrial by-products
-
Food or agricultural slurries
-
Bentonite and drilling mud
Key Features of a High-Quality Slurry Tank Pump
Not all pumps are cut out for slurry work. Our premium slurry tank pump units feature:
💪 Abrasion-Resistant Construction
With components made from hardened alloys or elastomer-lined interiors, they’re built to take the punishment of sand, grit, and slurry without premature failure.
🔄 Vortex or Open Impeller Designs
These impellers prevent clogging by keeping solids moving freely, ensuring continuous operation even with lumpy or fibrous materials.
🔧 Heavy-Duty Shaft Seals
Mechanical seals or gland packing options keep the pump running in aggressive environments while minimizing downtime.
🚜 Submersible and External Mount Options
Choose from vertical tank-mounted, submersible, or externally installed pump setups, depending on your application and access requirements.
🛠️ Custom Fittings and Control Options
We provide custom pipework, valves, and even pump control panels tailored to your exact system requirements.
Common Applications for Slurry Tank Pumps
⛏️ Mining and Quarrying
Pump tailings, thickened slurry, or pit water straight from containment tanks to processing or disposal areas.
💧 Wastewater Treatment
Handle sewage sludge, biosolids, or grit-laden water from treatment tanks and clarifiers.
🍺 Food & Beverage
Move mash, pulp, or process slurry in breweries, wineries, and food factories.
🧱 Construction & Civil
Manage bentonite slurry or drilling fluids used in tunnelling and foundations.
