Very efficient and practical hand pump

Need something effective to clean out the sump tank. Did the job and pumped out several gallons in minutes. The pipe is built in sections up to about 36 inches. There were no problems. Easily broken and saved. I am very happy with this hand pump

Pros
  • 3 pcs. suction pipe with threaded connections and 2 pcs. Drain pipe
Cons
  • Almost never

Did I miss the part where there are different thread standards?

Overall looks and works as expected. The problem is that the barrel mating connector is fine threads and a smaller diameter, and in case you didn't know (like me) there are two holes on the blue 55 gallon. barrels. A gear and a thin thread. Once I figured that out, everything worked for me. Wow. I wish I knew.

Pros
  • intake manifold: 1.5 inch; Exhaust pipe: 1 inch
Cons
  • Broadly ok but...

Wrong thread on keg lid

To my disappointment I found that the black plastic plug that the suction tube goes through was not the right thread for the keg. Although the keg (55 gallon blue plastic) has two holes in the top (regular and fine thread), the plug that came with it didn't fit either. The thin thread on the cork was the wrong pitch. You can see the wrong cork (black) in my photo with a cork that I had to adjust (red) to fit the drum. I tried three different kegs to make sure the cork that came with the pump…

Pros
  • Flow rate: 35 liters per minute
Cons
  • Slightly cracked

Not suitable for 55 gallon blue drum

The plug adapter that came with this pump will not fit the 55 gallon blue drum. The thread on the adapter is very close to the correct pitch and looks like it should match, but it doesn't. After trying to get it working I contacted the seller and he sent me an adapter to use on the BPA free TERAPUMP TRTI901 siphon drum pump for a heavy duty 15 30 55 gallon drum pump. This adapter can be screwed on without any problems, but the inner bore through which the suction hose is routed has a larger…

Pros
  • NOT for use with gasoline or potable water!
Cons
  • I will add later
