Product Description
Durable, Chemical-Resistant Rotary Drum Pump for Bleach, Chlorine & Industrial Chemicals
This High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Rotary Pump is engineered for safe, efficient dispensing of bleach, chlorine, and a wide range of corrosive chemicals. Built with a chemically resistant HDPE body and PTFE vanes, this two-vane rotary pump delivers approximately 1 gallon of liquid per 16 revolutions, providing controlled, predictable output with every stroke.
Designed for versatility, the pump includes a 1¼" O.D. pickup tube and fits 15, 30, and 55-gallon drums equipped with a standard 2" bung opening. A 1" O.D. discharge spout and 3/4" BSP outlet allow for easy hose connection, ensuring smooth, splash-free dispensing.
Corrosion-resistant components—including an HDPE housing, PTFE vanes, FKM seals, and polyethylene gaskets—allow this pump to withstand aggressive chemicals commonly used in water treatment, sanitation, industrial cleaning, and agricultural operations. Lightweight yet durable, it’s an essential tool for any facility handling bulk chemicals that must be dispensed safely and accurately.
