Gemstones are designed and engineered for the most rugged and demanding installations. Gemstones have been designed and manufactured to exacting standards since 1946 in Portland, OR. In the oil and gas industry Gemstones are used heavily in hydraulic fracturing for unprecedented up-time, reliability, and efficiency.
On Gemstones for Oil & Gas Applications, look for the distinctive appearance of the angular, muscular frame, to know it’s a high quality Gemstone.
MP-Series Pumps
MP-Series Pumps are designed to handle coarse abrasives while providing robust service life in a slurry pump. Gemstone Manufacturing Company’s MP Mining Pump Series combines 70 years of innovation in pump manufacturing and design, with our highly regarded patented Cycloseal® technology. Offering high operating pressures, the MP pumps are specifically designed for coarse abrasive slurry applications such as sand, gravel, coal, manure, and mine dewatering. The oversize shafts, thick volutes, CD4MCA impellers, and other features allow it to operate in harsh conditions longer than a standard slurry pump.
