This product is a water pump in a very small size that can be used to make a standard electric (corded) or cordless (battery powered) hand drill into a high efficiency fluid transfer system. The pump housing is made from impact resistant engineering plastic and corrosion resistant metal. This will allow you to replace large and cumbersome motorized pumps with one easy-to-use, compact unit which can easily fit into any home workshop, garage, or garden shed or be included in any auto repair/maintenance kit.
Mechanics Of Use And Key Design Elements
The pump works by using a hex drive fitting directly into your drill chuck. When you operate your drill to the shaft drives an internal rotor and impeller creating suction on the inlet side of the pump and pressurizing the liquid on the outlet side. The inlet and outlet fittings have NPT threads allowing you to connect your standard garden hoses.
In order to assist you in assembling everything together, the box contains:
Two quick connect hose adapters: To enable you quickly attach/detach standard hoses instead of having to screw them all the time.
Two stainless steel worm gear hose clamps: For providing a watertight seal at high pressures when attaching/disconnecting hoses to/from the pump preventing slippage and pressure loss due to leakage.
Use Cases and Portability
One of the major advantages of this pump is it does not require electricity in most cases and therefore it is extremely lightweight/portable. Because it uses your drill for power, it is perfect for those applications where there may be no electricity available or it would be unsafe to be close to water while operating electrical equipment. Some examples of domestic/light commercial usage include:
As a simple, ruggedly built unit that simply plugs into your existing tools, this pump provides a convenient way to solve any number of unexpected issues involving water transfers.
