Still Waiting on a Backordered Mag-Drive Pump?
Downtime is bleeding your budget, and supply chains aren't getting better anytime soon. LibertyCES tracks in-stock, ready-to-ship mag-drive crossover options.

- Common mistakes when switching pump models
- Current pump specifications and availability
A correct crossover means verifying the full wetted path, hydraulics, and containment — not just matching a flange size. See our sealless pump platforms guide for the material and hydraulic verification LibertyCES applies before recommending a crossover.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does unplanned pump downtime actually cost?
Average unplanned downtime runs about $125,000/hr, and process manufacturing downtime losses can reach $532,000/hr — costs that dwarf the price difference between a backordered OEM pump and an in-stock crossover.
Is it safe to swap a backordered mag-drive pump for a different model?
Only if the full wetted path, hydraulics, and containment are re-verified — matching just the flange size is the most common mistake when switching pump models mid-crossover.
Why are mag-drive pumps facing supply chain delays?
Backorders on OEM mag-drive pumps are common industry-wide; LibertyCES tracks in-stock, ready-to-ship crossover options specifically to avoid waiting on those delays.
