Orion Motor Tech 55-Gallon Drum Pump, Fits 5–55 gal — Telescoping Suction Tube, Polypropylene

The Orion Motor Tech OMT 55 Gallon Drum Pump is a portable, telescoping polypropylene hand pump that dispenses water-based fluids and chemical solutions from 5 to 55 gallon drums quickly and cleanly.

Made for workshops, farms, fleets and industrial storage areas, this drum pump combines a three‑section telescoping suction tube with a 3/4" discharge spout and an ergonomic handle to make fluid transfer fast and controlled. It ships with a custom‑molded carrying case for neat storage and simple transport, and its corrosion‑resistant construction is optimized for routine use with compatible fluids like AdBlue, urea solutions, DEF, diesel additives, and many water‑based liquids.

How does the telescoping tube adapt to different drum sizes?

The pump’s three‑section telescoping suction tube extends from 11.8" to 35.4", so it reaches the bottom of small five‑gallon pails up through full 55‑gallon drums. Quick adjustments let you match the tube length to the container depth for efficient suction and minimal residual fluid.

• Telescopes in three increments for precise length control
• Covers 15–55 gallon drum depths when fully extended
• Shortens to fit 5–15 gallon pails without prying or modifications

What fluids can I safely pump with this drum pump?

This pump is intended for water‑based and certain chemical solutions — for example AdBlue/DEF, urea mixtures, diesel additives, and non‑flammable oils. It is not designed for gasoline or very high‑viscosity fluids; avoid use with strong solvents or fuels that require explosion‑proof equipment.

• Compatible with AdBlue/DEF, urea, and many water‑based chemicals
• Not suitable for gasoline or highly viscous fluids
• Polypropylene construction resists corrosion from common liquids

How easy is it to use, transport, and maintain?

The pump’s ergonomic handle gives a secure grip for one‑handed pumping, and the simple, snap‑together design allows quick assembly and disassembly for cleaning or storage. The included custom‑molded carrying case keeps components organized and protects the pump between jobs.

• Ergonomic handle for a comfortable, firm grip and efficient pressure
• Tool‑free assembly and disassembly for fast cleaning or replacement
• Compact case for transport and protected storage on trucks or shelves

How durable is the pump for daily or jobsite use?

Constructed from heavy‑duty polypropylene, the OMT drum pump resists corrosion and stands up to repeated use in workshop and industrial environments. Its materials and simple mechanical design reduce maintenance needs compared with metal pumps prone to rust.

• Polypropylene body resists corrosion and most water‑based chemicals
• Robust handle and spout designed for frequent operation
• Replaceable components simplify repairs and extend service life

Who is this for: This drum pump is suited to mechanics, fleet managers, farmers, maintenance technicians, and hobbyists who need a dependable, portable solution for dispensing water‑based fluids from drums and barrels. Choose this model if you need a corrosion‑resistant, easy‑to‑adjust pump for AdBlue/DEF, urea solutions, and similar non‑flammable liquids; do not use it for gasoline or heavy petroleum fluids.
