The MP 38580 is a robust, pedestal-mounted centrifugal pump end from the FLOMAX 8 series, designed for self-priming applications. Constructed from durable cast iron and fitted with a 4.84-inch diameter semi-open impeller, this pump end is engineered for high-performance operation in demanding environments.

This model features a bare shaft and is supplied without a motor, making it ideal for users who wish to pair it with their preferred drive system. Compatible with hydraulic motors, 56C and 145TC frame electric motors, gas engines, or a T-frame motor with a bearing pedestal, the MP 38580 offers versatile installation options. It is also available as a PumPAK – a preassembled, performance-tested pump end – for easier integration.

Equipped with a T/31 double mechanical seal and precision-balanced impeller, the pump ensures reliable performance, even in challenging applications. Once initially primed, the FLOMAX 8 design maintains a full suction line thanks to an internal flapper valve, allowing for up to 25 feet of suction lift.

Ideal for industrial, OEM, agricultural, and marine use, this pump is frequently deployed in systems such as bilge pumps, fire-fighting support, washdown stations, ballast and bulk fluid transfer, and agricultural sprayers.
