The pump in question is for filling a pond, so will be free flowing.
280" well
5 hp pump
flowing around 5o gpm
My local pump supplier says thermoplastic. They sell berkeley and franklin water horse. They said they use to sell sell stainless style pumps, but stopped due to too many problems with impellers wearing out.
Well driller says franklin motor mated to a grunfos stainless steel impellered pump. He also does pump pulls and re-installs and he says the thermoplastic is junk.
I know both to be reputable.
So........
