    Hello Virginia, a cast iron pump such as B623146 would not be recommended due to the viscosity of the emulsion, and in addition - it would corrode. However, we can recommend global model B623209 or B1775112, which are constructed of Polyethylene and Polypropylene, would be suitable. Please enter either listed model into the search bar at globalindustrial.com for more product information. Thank you for your question.
