TALFIT Drum Pump 15–55 Gallon, 10 GPM Hand Rotary Transfer Pump — Corrosion-Resistant PP

The TALFIT 15–55 Gallon Drum Pump is a hand-operated rotary transfer pump that moves water, DEF, diesel, kerosene and many mild chemicals at roughly 10 gallons per minute without electricity.

This compact, manual drum pump is built for fast, reliable liquid transfer from standard 15 to 55 gallon drums and barrels. Constructed from corrosion- and heat-resistant polypropylene (PP) and PPS components, it’s engineered to tolerate a wide variety of fluids while minimizing wear. The rotary, hand-crank design delivers smooth pumping action and a large-volume flow rate, making it a practical choice for workshops, farms, garages and light industrial settings where electricity might not be available or desirable.

How fast and consistent is the flow?

Expect approximately 10 gallons per minute under normal hand-crank use, achieved through an internal design sized for higher throughput than many manual pumps. Flow depends on user speed and fluid viscosity, but the larger rotary components help sustain consistent transfer even for thicker liquids.

• Nominal maximum flow: ~10 GPM with steady cranking
• Suitable for low-to-mid viscosity liquids like water, DEF, diesel, and kerosene
• Large-diameter internal parts reduce pulsation and improve throughput

What liquids is this pump compatible with?

The TALFIT pump is formulated to handle a broad range of common fluids found in maintenance and agricultural tasks. Materials (PP and PPS) were chosen for chemical resistance so the pump performs safely with many organic solvents, oils and water-based liquids—but avoid strong acids, concentrated bases, and highly aggressive solvents unless compatibility is verified.

• Works with: water, DEF, diesel, kerosene, biodiesel, engine coolant, motor oil, transmission fluid
• Also handles: industrial and water-based cleaners, liquid fertilizers and mild chemicals
• Not recommended: highly corrosive acids/bases and unknown aggressive solvents without testing

How easy is it to install and use on drums?

Installation is quick and intuitive: insert the pump tube into the drum, secure the bung adapter, and start turning the hand crank. No power source is required, and the ergonomic crank reduces fatigue for repeated transfers. The pump’s modular design also simplifies cleaning and storage.

• Fits standard 15–55 gallon drum openings with included adapter
• Hand-operated rotary crank — no electricity, no batteries
• Disassembles for cleaning and inspection in minutes

How durable is the construction for repeated use?

Durability is a core design feature: robust PP and PPS components resist aging, heat and corrosion for long service life. The heavy-duty rotary mechanism and enlarged flow passages lower wear rates, making this pump a reliable workhorse for frequent drum transfers.

• Corrosion-resistant PP and PPS materials extend operational lifespan
• Heat- and aging-resistant plastics minimize warping and brittleness
• Built for repeated, on-site transfers in workshops and field use

Who this is for: The TALFIT 15–55 Gallon Drum Pump suits technicians, farmers, fleet managers, workshop owners and anyone who needs a rugged, portable way to move bulk liquids without power. It’s ideal when you need a quicker flow rate than small hand pumps but want the portability and simplicity of a manual system. If you handle common fuels, DEF, lubricants or water-based solutions and need dependable performance from drum to tank or container, this pump is designed to make that task faster and more manageable.
