Selectable-Flow-Rate Easy-Stroke Drum Pumps for Water and Chemicals

With Plastic Intake Tube and Housing

With Stainless Steel Intake Tube and Housing

These pumps have a selectable flow rate, so you can adjust flow for different dispensing applications. A lever handle maximizes output with each stroke for low-effort dispensing.

Whenever working with flammable liquids, always bond and ground your application for static control. For more information about bonding and grounding, see Sections 1910.106 and 1910.107 of the Federal OSHA Code or see bonding and grounding equipment.

Compact Drum Pumps for Water and Chemicals

Designed to move low volumes of caustic liquids in confined areas, these pumps have a thin intake tube and a small handle. They are often used to pump cleaning fluids, acid-washing solutions, and bleach.

Style A pumps have a selectable flow rate, so you can adjust flow for different dispensing applications.

Style B pumps have a flexible discharge spout.

Nondrip Drum Pumps for Water and Chemicals

Remote Tap Kit

Eliminate leaks and waste with a faucet-style nondrip nozzle that quickly starts and stops flow. Pressurize your container with a few pumps of the plunger handle, and use the one-touch nozzle to manage flow. Hold down the nozzle for intermittent dispensing, open the nozzle fully for continuous flow, and close the nozzle to stop flow entirely.

Remote tap kits extend your pump's reach for transferring liquid to tanks, mixers, and sprayers.

Drum Pumps for Harsh Chemicals

With Spout End

With Nozzle

Made with PTFE components, these pumps stand up to aggressive chemicals our other drum pumps can't, such as hydrochloric acid, bleach, sodium hydroxide, and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). A stopcock prevents fluid and vapor from leaking after use.

Siphon Drum Pumps

Since these pumps use suction to draw liquid out of your container, they continue dispensing once you get them started. They're often used with coolant and water.

Adjust pumps with a 5-7 gpm flow rate for different dispensing applications.

High-Pressure Air-Powered Drum Pumps for Chemicals

With a higher pressure than other air-powered drum pumps, these pumps move thick chemicals with a viscosity of up to 5,000 centipoise. A stainless steel housing stands up to acids, solvents, and other caustics. Install an air line filter/lubricator to ensure efficiency and reduce wear on the pump.
