The Gorman-Rupp Super U Series® is one of the most efficient self-priming, solids-handling pumps on the market, delivering up to 75% efficiency with a multi-vane impeller and smooth wall volute casing that reduce friction and drag. These pumps maintain high performance across a broad operating range, even when operating outside their best efficiency point.

Built for Durability and Easy Maintenance

Super U Series pumps are designed for long service life with heavy-duty construction and a five-year warranty. They feature an exclusive double-floating, self-aligning oil-lubricated mechanical cartridge seal, ensuring extended performance in abrasive industrial applications.

The external shimless adjustment allows easy clearance tuning without realigning belts or couplings, doubling the life of the impeller and wearplate while keeping the pump at peak efficiency. The removable cover plate with an “easy-grip” handle allows for quick inspection and service without disconnecting piping, reducing downtime.

Flexible Drive Options

Super U Series pumps are available as basic units, flex-coupled, or v-belt driven for maximum operational flexibility. V-belt configurations provide adjustable speed options, eliminating the need for impeller trimming and ensuring the best combination of head and capacity.

  • Up to 75% efficiency – High-performance multi-vane impeller minimizes energy loss.
