Description
Overview:
The Faithfull DIY Manual Squeeze Siphon Pump is a handheld transfer pump made from non‐corrosive polyethylene (PE) for moving liquids safely between containers from 5 litres up to 205‐litre drums. It uses a simple squeeze action to start and maintain siphon flow, so no power source is needed. Suitable liquids include kerosene, diesel, petrol (gasoline), water (not for drinking), light oils, chemical insecticides, soaps, detergents, mild acids, and antifreeze. The total length is 530 mm (20.87 inches) for easy reach into drums, with a 385 mm (15.16 inches) suction tube for efficient pick‐up. Built for site and workshop use, it helps refuel and drain tanks on construction and garden equipment such as generators, plate compactors, mowers, and similar small plant.
Key Features:
- Non‐corrosive PE construction resists rust and many chemicals for long service life
- Manual squeeze operation; no batteries or mains power required
- Works across common container sizes from 5 litres to 205 litres (typical 205‐litre steel or plastic drums)
- Broad liquid compatibility: kerosene, diesel, petrol (gasoline), water (non‐potable), light oils, insecticides, soaps, detergents, mild acids, antifreeze
- Total length 530 mm (20.87 inches) with 385 mm (15.16 inches) suction tube for reliable reach and flow
- Lightweight and portable for use on sites, in workshops, and garages
- Simple to start and control flow with squeeze bulb; minimal maintenance
- Durable build suitable for tradespeople and DIY users
- Smooth PE surfaces are easy to wipe clean after use
- Helps reduce spills versus free‐pouring from heavy cans and drums
