If you need a reliable manual pump for garages, service bays, farms, or workshops, the Orion Motor Tech lever action drum pump is built to move viscous fluids without electricity.

How much fluid does each lever stroke deliver?

Each full lever stroke pumps about 10 fluid ounces, enabling controlled, metered transfers when you need to fill jugs, funnels or small reservoirs. The measured output helps prevent overfilling and makes it easy to estimate total transfer time for large drums.

• Approx. 10 fl. oz. per stroke
• Good for incremental, repeatable transfers
• Reduces need for guesswork when dispensing fluids

Which drums and liquids is this pump compatible with?

The telescoping suction tube fits 15 to 55 gallon drums, making it versatile across common barrel sizes. It works well with diesel, motor oil, heavy oils, transmission fluid and similar non‑corrosive petroleum products used in maintenance and service environments.

• Suitable for 15–55 gal drums
• Compatible with oils and petroleum‑based fluids
• Not for strong acids, bases, or solvents unless confirmed safe

How is the pump constructed and how durable is it?

Key structural components are made from AISI 1045 steel for strength and corrosion resistance under regular use. The robust lever mechanism and reinforced handle let you apply pressure without bending or fatigue, so it stands up to frequent transfers in commercial or personal settings.

• AISI 1045 steel construction for longevity
• Reinforced lever and firm grip handle for easier pumping
• Designed for repeated, heavy‑use scenarios

What accessories come with the pump and how easy is setup?

The pump ships with thread seal tape, two wrenches and a storage case so you can mount and seal the unit right away. The telescoping tube adjusts to fit the barrel depth and the wide 3/4" spout reduces back pressure for smoother dispensing and less mess.
