Title: Fuel Gallon Jug Pumps (Hope this is the right place)
Post by: Aaron Little on October 20, 2010, 04:26:03 PM

I hope I am in the correct area, but does anyone know where to get the Gallon Jug pumps similar to old Ketchup or something pumps for the fuel jugs?
We have one but its on its last leg and am looking to get another.
We used to could get them at a cook supply place here but they are all closed now.
Windy used them a lot and I have seen a few pictures of them here recently, just a pump that fits a 1 gallon fuel jug.

Thanks for any info!
Aaron

The next time you're in an independently-operated restaurant, ask.

There are probably restaurant supply places on the Internet -- Google?

Yeah I should probably be more specific.
I am looking for one that has been done up so to speak, ready to use, we have had problems with them before where the ends would fall out etc.
I found some of the actual pumps on ebay but there are so many people making so many things now a days I though I may get lucky!

 There is a company in Jacksonville, FL that has them. I'll check with them when I get back from Huntersville this weekend.

PS:Maybe he will see this and let us know where to get them.  He is in the members list.jeh

The same pumps are used in gallon soap jugs. 

I get mine from a farm supply store that sells stuff for dairy farmers and horses. 

Might be a little more robust than the food grade ones.

I know what these pumps look like but what is the advantage(s) over the standard crank type?
