This Taco FI Series base-mounted end suction pump features an 8" suction and a 6" discharge with ANSI Class 125 flanges. The pump includes an 11" nominal impeller diameter constructed of bronze and a cast iron casing.

This construction is rated for temperatures up to 250°F and is intended for clean water applications. The design incorporates a dry shaft to prevent contact between the circulating fluid and the shaft.
