Application & User
The Westward 5TCU1 is an air-operated oil pump designed for high-volume fluid transfer in automotive and industrial settings. It delivers a 3:1 pump ratio to move oil efficiently from drums or tanks. Professional technicians and maintenance teams use this unit where compressed air is available and bulk dispensing is required.
Suitability & Limits
This pump suits workshops that need fast, air-driven oil transfer without electrical connections. It includes a suction tube for direct drum insertion. Buyers who need a self-contained unit with a built-in hose reel, nozzle or spout should look elsewhere, as those components are not included. Operations requiring electric or battery power cannot use this model.
Deciding Specification
The pump operates at a maximum air pressure of 150 psi and consumes 8 cfm of compressed air. Your air compressor must reliably supply this pressure and flow for the pump to perform as rated. The discharge connection uses an MNPT fitting for standard plumbing integration.

Questions about this item
Should I pick the 3:1 ratio or a different pump for my drum size?
The 3:1 ratio is built into this model and delivers up to 275 gal per cycle, so choose it when that output matches your drum capacity.
What does the 150 psi air-pressure rating mean when the pump is running?
It is the maximum compressed-air pressure the pump can accept; operating at or below 150 psi keeps the 3:1 fluid ratio accurate and prevents seal damage.
How does the MNPT discharge connection affect hose compatibility?
The male NPT thread lets you screw on any standard NPT hose or fitting without adapters, capping the connection to common pipe-thread sizes.
