Self-Priming Hand Drum Pump
The Dayton 4HA31 is a new hand-operated drum pump built from stainless steel with a 9/16 inch OD spout. It self-primes for immediate liquid transfer without external priming steps. A PVDF piston and PTFE seals provide chemical resistance for demanding fluids. The pump includes a polypropylene bung adapter and spout for secure container mounting.
Chemical Transfer for Buckets and Drums
This pump suits operators moving photographic chemicals or solvents from buckets, drums or pails. It is not suited for metered dispensing because the unit has no metering function. Buyers who need an included discharge hose or nozzle should look elsewhere as neither is supplied. Workers requiring powered operation must choose a different pump type.
PVDF Piston with PTFE Seals
The piston uses PVDF and the seals use PTFE to withstand aggressive chemical exposure during transfer. These materials determine whether the pump survives the specific fluids in your process. Verify compatibility with your exact chemical formulation before purchase.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 4HA31 pump on a drum and what step is often missed?
Screw the polypropylene bung adapter into the drum opening, insert the pump tube, and tighten the adapter — the step often missed is securing the adapter firmly so the pump seals and self-primes.
Which parts of the 4HA31 will need replacement after extended use?
The PVDF piston and PTFE seals wear with solvent exposure; replace them when pumping action weakens or fluid bypasses the piston.
What limit appears first during sustained pumping with the 4HA31?
Operator fatigue from continuous hand stroking limits output before the pump mechanism itself overheats or binds.
