TALFIT 15–55 Gallon Drum Pump — Hand-Operated Rotary Barrel Pump, 10 GPM, Corrosion-Resistant PP/PPS

The TALFIT 15–55 Gallon Drum Pump is a hand-operated rotary transfer pump that moves up to 10 gallons per minute of water, DEF, diesel, kerosene and many mild chemicals using corrosion-resistant PP and PPS construction.

Built for fast, reliable fluid transfers from standard barrels, this manual drum pump blends heavy-duty materials with a simple crank action so you can move liquids without electricity. Its polypropylene (PP) and polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) components resist corrosion, heat and aging, making it suitable for repeat use in garages, farms, workshops and light industrial settings. The design accommodates most 15–55 gallon drums and offers broader chemical compatibility than typical metal pumps.

How quickly will this pump move liquids?

The TALFIT rotary barrel pump delivers an efficient minimum flow of 10 gallons per minute under normal hand operation, giving you quick transfers without power. Flow depends on operator speed and liquid viscosity, but the pump’s larger internal parts maintain steady throughput than smaller manual units.

• Rated minimum flow: 10 GPM (approx.)
• Hand-operated rotary action for continuous transfer
• Stable flow with low-shear handling for oils and fuel

Which fluids can I safely pump with this manual drum pump?

Its PP and PPS construction tolerates a wide variety of fluids, including many petroleum products and water-based liquids. Avoid strong acids, concentrated bases, and highly oxidizing chemicals — the pump is intended for diesel, kerosene, DEF, biodiesel blends, engine fluids, cleaners and similar mild chemicals.

• Compatible: water, DEF, diesel, kerosene, motor oil, transmission fluid
• Also suitable: biodiesel blends, engine coolant, industrial cleaners, water-based cleaners
• Not for: concentrated acids, strong oxidizers, or solvents outside polypropylene compatibility

What materials and design features give it durability?

The pump uses corrosion-resistant polypropylene (PP) and PPS components that resist aging and heat better than standard plastics. The larger internal geometry reduces wear and maintains flow, while the hand crank eliminates motor maintenance and electrical hazards.

• Body and internals: corrosion-resistant PP and PPS
• Heat- and aging-resistant construction for repeated use
• Manual crank: simple maintenance, no power required

How easy is it to install and use on a 15–55 gallon drum?

Installation is straightforward: insert the pump tube into the drum and secure the flange or adapter; then rotate the handle to begin flow. Its design fits standard drum openings and includes features to minimize splashing and make operation smooth for one person.

• Fits 15–55 gallon drums with standard openings
• Tool-free setup and hand-crank operation
• Large-diameter internals reduce clogging and pour interruptions

Who is this for: The TALFIT 15–55 Gallon Drum Pump is ideal for mechanics, small-farm operators, fleet maintenance teams, janitorial staff and hobbyists who need a robust, portable, non-electric solution for moving fuels, oils and water-based liquids. If you want a corrosion-resistant, low-maintenance drum transfer option that performs quickly and handles a wide range of mild chemicals, this manual rotary pump offers a reliable, cost-effective choice without the complexity of powered systems.
