Action Pump 505 8 oz. PVC Piston Drum Pump with Discharge Spout

This Action Pump 505 hand-operated piston drum pump is made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) for resistance to acids and alkalis, delivers 8 oz. of fluid per stroke, and is suitable for dispensing detergents, most acids, chlorines, oils, D-limonene, waxes, alkalis, water, or soaps. It has a 3/4" drip-resistant discharge spout and an overall length of 23-1/2". This piston drum pump is suitable for use with 5, 15, 30, and 55 gallon drums for dispensing liquids in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.SpecificationsPumpPiston drum pumpMaterialsPVC pump and componentsFlow rate8 oz. per strokeDischarge port3/4"Maximum temperature140 degrees FFor use with5, 15, 30, and 55 gallon drumsWeight2 lb.DimensionsOverall length: 23-1/2"; Suction hose: 22-1/2"Pumps use mechanical action to move liquids, gases, or slurries (solids suspended in a liquid or gas). The mechanical action is categorized as either positive displacement (PD) or kinetic. PD pumps capture and release discrete amounts of flow into a chamber and then force it out. Some examples of PD pumps are fuel and oil pumps in cars, pumps in hydraulic systems, and bicycle pumps. Kinetic pumps move liquids, gases, or slurries by transferring energy from the pump's movement to the flow. They use an impeller to draw the flow in, add energy to the flow, and move it through a volute (a spiral funnel through which the flow moves), and into the system. Some examples of kinetic pumps include centrifugal (the most common pump in industrial applications), in-line pumps, sump pumps, and suction pumps. Energy sources for all types of pumps include wind power, manual operation, electricity, and gasoline or diesel fuel.Action Pump manufactures drum and pail pumps and grease, oil, and lubrication products. The company, founded in 1981, is headquartered in Cary, IL.What's in the Box?505 drum pump2" bung adapter22-1/2" suction hose
