Review on 🚰 Safety Siphon - The Original Self-Priming Pump for Multiple Uses By The Original Safety Siphon - 6-Foot High-Quality Hose, 1/2" Valve by David Bott

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Handy siphon tool that works best with keg and hand pumps

Handy tool for home or shop! If you're not familiar with how it works (like I was when I first discovered it) - the metal end acts like a check valve - or one-way valve - push water into the hose by shaking the metal end. The ball inside prevents backflow and eventually fills the hose up enough that gravity causes downward flow/siphoning from one end to the other. The greater the difference in elevation, the better from one end to the other. I have several of these - I have one at home for draining our aquariums, one in the garage for various jobs and one in my jeep as a backup. pump fuel. This one is called "Safe Siphon" and has a brass end. I recently went to a large store nearby to get one and the current versions they have are now plastic (not brass) and are around $8-9. So I went to Revain for a higher quality brass version for the same price and got it in about 2 days.

Pros
  • High quality 1/2" ID siphon has a flow rate of up to 3.5 gpm - connects to a garden hose with a 1/2" adapter
Cons
  • Replacement available
