Gorman-Rupp Replacement Diaphragms

Diaphragm Pump Parts – 2", 3" & 4"

Ken’s Distributing Company supplies Gorman-Rupp replacement diaphragms pumps used in construction, municipal, agricultural, and industrial applications. These diaphragms form the flexible barrier between the air and liquid chambers, creating the pumping action that moves fluids and solids without direct contact between the mechanical drive and the liquid.

We offer individual units and bulk orders, with bulk discounts starting at 15 diaphragms or more. We work directly with contractors, distributors, and small businesses, providing OEM-fit parts, competitive pricing, and nationwide shipping.

Replacement & Maintenance Tips

To get the longest service life from your Gorman-Rupp diaphragm pump:

  • Inspect the diaphragm for cracking, dry rot, or stiffness every 100–150 hours of operation.
  • Replace immediately if the pump loses prime, displacement drops, or you see visible damage.
  • Match the diaphragm material to the application (abrasive slurry, clean water, oil-contaminated fluids).
  • Replace check valves, flappers, and wear items at the same time when possible.
  • Always torque clamping hardware evenly to maintain a proper seal and diaphragm life.

Choosing Between Rubber, Neoprene & Buna Diaphragms

Rubber

Best for abrasive and muddy conditions with high solids content.

Neoprene

Strong all-purpose material for construction and general water transfer.

Buna

Ideal when pumps encounter oils, fuels, or hydrocarbon-contaminated water.
