Drum Pump for 15 to 55 Gal Drums
This lever-operated hand pump fits steel drums ranging from 15 to 55 gallons. It moves 10 ounces of fluid per stroke through a steel discharge tube with an M20 x 1 outlet. Wetted parts include aluminum, brass, steel, Viton and zinc for chemical compatibility.
Sustained Flow up to 3,500 SUS Viscosity
The pump handles fluids with a maximum viscosity of 3,500 SUS at temperatures up to 140 degrees F. Its zinc piston and Viton seals maintain consistent delivery during repeated lever action without short-stroke fatigue. The 34.5625 in. suction tube reaches the bottom of deep drums for complete evacuation.
Steel Construction with M20 x 1 Outlet
The discharge tube is steel with a 7 in. length and a 29/32 in. x 3/4 in. outer diameter. An M20 x 1 outlet thread allows direct connection to compatible fittings or hose adapters. A 1 in. inlet threads into standard drum bungs for secure mounting during daily transfer tasks.

Questions about this item
Does the lever action generate heat or noise during continuous all-day pumping?
The pump is hand-operated with a lever action, so it produces no motor heat or electrical noise; only mechanical lever movement occurs during use.
What drum thread size must my 15 to 55 gal drum already have for the M20 x 1 outlet to fit?
The pump outlet is M20 x 1; your drum needs a compatible M20 x 1 bung opening or an adapter to match that thread.
Will the Viton seals and aluminum, brass, steel, zinc wetted parts resist fluids in my older steel drums?
Wetted materials are aluminum, brass, steel, Viton, and zinc with Viton seals, suitable for fluids compatible with those materials up to 140 °F and 3,500 SUS viscosity.
