An impeller for a molten metal pump includes an exterior bearing mounting surface that is trued about the axis of the impeller and drive shaft assembly. Another impeller arrangement includes a pumping chamber having an axis offset from the impeller axis to achieve a volute pumping arrangement. In a further arrangement, the impeller is provided with peripheral pumping chambers intersecting the peripheral surface of the impeller. In each of the foregoing arrangements, a plate may be fixed to the pump drive shaft at a location axially spaced from the impeller inlet to screen debris and to pump molten metal to the impeller inlet.
