Fuel transfer pump for 55 gal drums
The Dayton 12F726 is an electric pump rated for 115V AC that moves fuel at up to 13 gpm from standard 55 gal drums. It includes a 12 ft discharge hose, a 34 in suction tube and a bung adapter for direct drum mounting. Manual nozzle operation gives the user full control over dispensing.
Thermals noise and power draw
The 1/8 HP motor runs on 115V AC household current and develops a maximum outlet pressure of 10 psi. The unit is not designed to run dry, so the pump must remain primed with fuel during operation. Self-priming capability simplifies startup after initial installation.
Upgrade from hand pumps or gravity feed
This pump replaces manual rotary or lever hand pumps and gravity-fed dispensing where faster, consistent flow is required. The jump is worth it when daily transfer volumes make hand pumping impractical or when a fixed 115V supply is available at the drum station. Buyers needing higher flow rates or dry-run capability should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
How do I install the Dayton 12F726 on a 55 gal drum and what step is often missed?
Thread the included bung adapter into the drum opening, insert the 34 in suction tube, connect the 12 ft discharge hose, then plug into 115V AC. The step often missed is tightening the bung adapter fully so the pump self-primes correctly.
What maintenance or replacement will the pump need later?
The pump is electric and self-priming with no lubrication points listed. Inspect the 12 ft discharge hose and 34 in suction tube for cracks or stiffness annually, and replace the manual nozzle if the trigger or seal wears out.
What limit appears first during sustained use?
The 10 psi maximum outlet pressure is the first limit. At 13 gpm max flow the pump will hit that pressure ceiling before thermal or duty-cycle limits become an issue, so long runs against a restricted nozzle will stall flow.
