Review on πŸ’ͺ Ultimate Performance: BESTOOL Air Hydraulic Pump Reservoir for Unparalleled Power by Christopher Smith

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The pump seems pretty solid, the hose is short (3.3ft) and patchy!

All in all I think it was a good buy. The pump itself looks solidly built and is on par with any other typical 10,000 psi pump I've seen. Pretty good quality style C 604 quick disconnects with threads for 3/8" NPT. The hose, however, went straight to the trash. It's VERY short at about 3.3 feet, unmarked (no pressure rating) and the threads see too does not fully conform to NPT or 3/8" BSPP or BSPT specifications. Why include a hose if it's not suitable for the application? You can't use a foot pump (for floor mounting) with a short hose for a bench mounted tool, and thread mismatch (or misspec) and no compression rating makes it very sketchy for a 10,000 psi hydraulic cylinder or jack.

Pros
  • Designed for use with single acting cylinders only, this air operated foot pump will work effectively in many industrial and construction applications utilizing single acting hydraulic cylinders.
Cons
  • Out of style
