Pulp & Paper Process Manufacturing
From our base in Pocatello, Idaho, KLD Pumps provides high-performance aftermarket pump parts for pulp and paper process manufacturing, delivering solutions at 20-30% lower costs than OEM. Our parts for Wilfley 2AG, 3AG, 3A7, and Krogh Carver 855 pumps are engineered for vacuum filtration and slurry handling, ensuring mills achieve operational efficiency, reduced maintenance, and consistent production quality in demanding environments.
KLD Pumps partners with pulp and paper mills to optimize pump performance across critical production stages. Our Krogh Carver 855 pump parts excel in vacuum filtration, dewatering pulp slurries, while Wilfley parts handle abrasive slurry transfer. Using advanced materials like CD4MCuN and Duplex Stainless Steel, our components resist corrosive fluids and fibrous slurries, ensuring reliability in continuous operations. With 3D scanning (0.005-inch accuracy) and ±0.001-inch tolerances, we deliver up to 85% efficiency and a 1-year warranty, helping mills meet quality and environmental standards while minimizing costs.

Our aftermarket parts support essential pulp and paper processes, enhancing operational uptime:
- Vacuum Filtration: Krogh Carver 855 parts (700 gpm, 26” Hg vacuum) dewater pulp slurries during stock preparation, with a low NPSH (3-5 ft) for stable performance, recovering up to 90% of fine fibers from white water.
- Slurry Handling: Wilfley 2AG and 3AG pumps (up to 1,000 gpm) transfer fibrous slurries, resisting abrasion in pipeline transport.
- Wastewater Processing: Wilfley 3A7 parts (800 gpm) manage effluent from bleaching and washing, ensuring efficient waste handling.
- Fiber Recovery: Carver 855 components with disc filters or savealls boost pulp yield, reducing raw material costs.
These applications ensure consistent paper quality and reduced downtime for high-throughput mills.
Our aftermarket parts offer significant advantages for pulp and paper operations:
- Longevity: CD4MCuN and Duplex Stainless Steel extend pump life by 25%, resisting corrosion and abrasion in harsh slurries.
- Precision Fit: 3D scanning and ±0.001-inch tolerances ensure seamless integration, with semi-open impellers maintaining filtration efficiency after interruptions.
- Cost Efficiency: 20-30% lower costs than OEM, reducing maintenance by 30% and saving 15-20% annually.
- Performance: Impellers achieve 85% efficiency, seals ensure <0.1 oz/hr leakage, improving fiber recovery and throughput.
These benefits provide reliability and affordability, enhancing mill competitiveness.
