A diaphragm pump having a reciprocating piston, a rotatable cam canted and engaging the piston, and a diaphragm secured to a plunger stem by a screw rotatable relative to the stem. The plunger stem extends into a bore in the piston, the piston bore and plunger stem having a matching configuration preventing rotation of the plunger stem relative to the piston when the diaphragm securing screw is loosened. The piston end engaging the cam is formed as a spherical section positioning the line of engagement with the cam closely adjacent the axial center of the piston, to reduce side thrust.
