MTH Pumps

What MTH Pumps does

MTH Tool Company, Inc., doing business as MTH Pumps, is a privately held U.S. manufacturer of regenerative turbine pumps and centrifugal pumps founded in 1965 and headquartered at 401 West Main Street, Plano, Illinois. The company's product portfolio is organized around high-pressure, low-flow pumping — covering pressures from 5 to 1,000 PSI and flow rates from 0.5 to 160 GPM — and spans close-coupled and flex-coupled regenerative turbine series (P31, T31, T41/E41, T51/E51, M50/L50, 140/180/240/280, 150/160/170/250/260/270), centrifugal series (C41/C51/C61, DC10 washdown), and sealless/hermetic designs (HP Series for refrigerants including A2L and CO2, and X41 canned motor pumps). Construction is available in cast iron, bronze, and stainless steel with multiple elastomer, thread, and drive options, and every pump is 100% tested in the ISO-certified Plano facility before shipment.

The core technology is regenerative turbine pump water passage design — a multi-stage mechanical concept that achieves high pressure at low flow where conventional centrifugal pumps underperform — augmented by sealless canned motor and hermetically sealed architectures that use the process fluid for motor cooling and eliminate mechanical seal maintenance. Field reliability is documented at 800+ X41 units shipped 1997-2003 with zero reported failures in water/glycol chiller service.

The business model is hardware sales through two channels: an authorized distributor network across the United States (with an online distributor locator) for standard catalog products, and direct OEM engagement (via a dedicated inquiry form) for custom engineered pump solutions. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; customers request quotes through distributors or OEM inquiry. Revenue streams include standard pump sales, custom/OEM engineered solutions, and pump accessories (relief valves, flange mounted pumps, adapters). Customer segments are Industrial (boiler feed, condensate return), Commercial/HVAC (chillers, temperature control, refrigeration), Municipal (water/wastewater), OEM (custom integration), Refrigeration (Freon, A2L, CO2), and Process/Petroleum. No venture or private equity ownership has been disclosed, and the company appears independently held since founding.
