Orion Motor Tech 55 Gallon Drum Pump — Hand Telescoping Transfer Pump, Fits 5–55 gal, Polypropylene

Orion Motor Tech's OMT 55 Gallon Drum Pump is a hand-operated telescoping transfer pump engineered to move water-based fluids and light chemicals reliably from 5 to 55 gallon drums.

This compact, portable drum pump was designed for quick assembly, dependable daily use, and safe storage. Made from corrosion-resistant polypropylene with a three-section telescoping suction tube, the OMT 55 Gallon Drum Pump fits a wide range of drum depths and delivers controlled dispensing through a 0.65-inch spout. The package includes a molded carrying case, an ergonomic crank handle, and parts sized to fit standard drums so you can transfer fluids without pumps that require electricity or complicated setup.

How does this pump adapt to different drum sizes?

The pump’s 3-section telescoping suction tube extends from 11.8 inches to 35.4 inches, letting you reach liquids in shallow containers or full 55-gallon barrels. A single pump unit covers multiple drum depths, eliminating the need for separate models.

• Telescoping range: 11.8"–35.4" to fit 15–55 gallon drums
• Adjusts quickly without tools
• Compact length for small drums and long reach for deep barrels

What fluids can I safely transfer with the drum pump?

The OMT pump is intended for water-based fluids and many light chemical solutions, such as AdBlue/DEF, urea solutions, and light fuel oils. It is not rated for gasoline, high-viscosity liquids, or aggressive solvents—use compatible transfer equipment for those fluids.

• 0.65 in spout suitable for controlled pouring of thin to medium fluids
• Compatible: water, urea/AdBlue, light diesel oil, coolant solutions
• Not compatible: gasoline, heavy oils, thick greases, strong solvents

How easy is it to operate and store the pump?

Operation is manual and intuitive: insert the telescoping tube into the drum, secure the pump, and use the ergonomic hand crank to dispense. When finished, the pump disassembles quickly and snaps into the included custom-molded case for neat storage and transportation.

• Ergonomic crank handle for comfortable, efficient pumping
• Quick assembly/disassembly for field or shop use
• Included custom-molded case protects components and aids portability

How durable and serviceable is the construction?

Constructed from heavy-duty polypropylene, the OMT drum pump resists corrosion and stands up to routine industrial or agricultural use. Parts are simple and user-serviceable, reducing downtime compared with sealed or electric units.

• Polypropylene body for chemical resistance and long life
• Simple mechanical parts for easy cleaning and replacement
• Designed for repeated daily use in workshops and job sites
