K Tool International Lever-Action Bucket Pump for 5-Gallon Pails — 4' PVC Hose, 2.14 oz/Stroke, 12" Drum Cover

The K Tool International 73993 is a lever-action bucket pump designed to transfer heavy oils and transmission fluids from 5-gallon pails quickly and with minimal effort.

This professional-grade pump pairs a lever-action mechanism with a 4-foot PVC hose and a steel spout to make moving viscous liquids faster, cleaner, and more controlled. Built to sit in standard 5-gallon pails, the assembly includes a 12-inch drum cover that helps stabilize the pump while reducing splashes and contamination. With a substantial 2.14-ounce (60 ml) delivery per stroke, this tool reduces the number of cycles required when dispensing larger volumes, saving time in busy garages, repair shops, or home workspaces.

How much fluid does the pump move each time I pull the lever?

Each full lever stroke dispenses roughly 2.14 ounces (60 milliliters) of fluid. That high per-stroke volume translates into fewer pulls to empty or transfer a given quantity, which is useful when working with heavier oils that resist flow.

• Delivery: 2.14 oz (60 ml) per stroke
• Fast filling for funnels, bottles, and drains
• Less repetitive motion for larger transfers

Will this fit my containers and where is it best used?

The unit is engineered for standard 5-gallon pails and includes a 12-inch drum cover to secure the pump in place. It’s intended for heavier lubricants—such as transmission fluids and differentials—and performs well in automotive shops, fleet maintenance bays, and many DIY garages.

• Designed to fit 5-gallon (19 L) pails
• Included 12" drum cover stabilizes the pump head
• Suitable for transmission, differential, and heavy oils

What parts are included and what are they made from?

The package contains the lever-actuated pump mechanism mounted to a 12-inch drum cover, a 4-foot PVC discharge hose, and a steel spout for precise routing. The construction balances lightweight handling with durability—total net weight about 6.08 lbs—so the unit is portable without sacrificing ruggedness for professional environments.

• Lever-action pump body mounted on a 12" drum cover
• 4-foot PVC hose with a steel spout for controlled discharge
• Lightweight, durable construction—net weight 6.08 lbs

How does it handle thick or heavy oils compared to a hand siphon?

Because the K Tool 73993 uses a positive-displacement lever mechanism, it overcomes the resistance of thicker fluids more reliably than gravity siphons or simple suction pumps. The heavier oils are moved in measured increments, which reduces messy spills and the need for repeated priming.

• Positive-displacement action for consistent flow
• Minimal priming required compared with siphons
• Steel spout and flexible hose aid precise pouring

Who is this for: Technicians, mechanics, fleet managers, and serious DIYers who regularly transfer viscous lubricants will find the K Tool International 73993 a practical choice. It’s particularly helpful where speed, control, and durability matter—garages, service centers, and workshops that handle transmission fluids, differential oils, and other heavy lubricants will benefit from the pump’s higher per-stroke output and robust build.
