4″ Replacement Diaphragms for Pumps

Finding the right 4 inch replacement diaphragms can be tricky, since fewer pumps use this larger size.
Read MoreKen’s Distributing stocks 4-inch diaphragms for the main brands that run them, in four materials, ready to ship the same day. This page shows what we carry, how to choose the right material, and how to confirm the fit before you order. A 4-inch diaphragm moves serious volume, so a worn one costs you real flow on big dewatering jobs. Once you know your pump model and material, the swap is quick.

Which Material Is Right for Your 4-Inch Pump?

The material decides how long your diaphragm lasts and what fluids it can handle. Here is a plain breakdown so you can pick with confidence.

Rubber

Rubber is the budget pick for plain water and light-duty work. It flexes well and handles everyday dewatering. Many crews keep a few of our rubber replacement diaphragms on the truck as spares.

Neoprene

Neoprene is the tough all-arounder, with strong tensile strength and good resistance to weather and flex cracking. On a hard-working 4-inch pump, it holds up to steady abuse. Browse our neoprene diaphragms to compare options.

Buna (Nitrile)

Buna resists oils, fuels, and hydrocarbons. Pick it when you pump near diesel, lubricants, or petroleum fluids, since plain rubber breaks down fast around those.

TPE (Santoprene)

TPE blends thermoplastic strength with rubber-like flex and broad chemical resistance. It is one of the longest-lasting choices for heavy industrial service. See the full lineup of TPE Santoprene diaphragms if uptime matters most.

How to Measure a 4-Inch Diaphragm Before You Order

The “4-inch” refers to your pump’s port size, not the diaphragm itself. To get the right part the first time, check these four things:
  1. Overall diameter, measured straight across the full diaphragm.
  2. Bolt-hole pattern: count the holes and measure the spacing center to center.
  3. Center mounting hole or stud opening diameter.
  4. Pump make and model, such as CH&E 4-inch, Mud Hog 414, or your Gorman-Rupp model.
Snap a photo and write down your numbers. Send both to our team and we will confirm the exact match before anything ships. This step matters most on 4-inch pumps, where the wrong size wastes a return trip.

4-Inch Diaphragm Questions, Answered

How do I know if I need a 4-inch diaphragm?

The “4-inch” refers to your pump’s port or discharge size. Check the model plate or measure the discharge outlet. When in doubt, send us your make and model.

Why are there fewer 4-inch options than 2-inch or 3-inch?

The 4-inch size is used on larger, higher-volume pumps, so fewer brands build them. CH&E, Mud Hog, and Gorman-Rupp are the main ones we stock.

What is the CH&E 4-inch part number?

CH&E uses P2157, with a letter for the material: P2157R rubber, P2157N neoprene, P2157B Buna, and P2157T TPE.

How fast can I get my part?

Most orders ship the same day, nationwide and to Canada.

Can I order in bulk?

Yes. We offer blanket orders and contractor pricing for shops and multi-crew operations.
