This submersible fuel kit includes a 51mm stainless steel pump, manual delivery nozzle, and four meters of wire-reinforced hose. It runs off any 12V or 24V vehicle battery, moving diesel, kerosene, or plain water without buying extra fittings.
Features and Benefits
- Full kit with 4-meter hose and manual nozzle - Lets you shut off flow right at the filler neck to prevent spills.
- 51mm stainless steel casing - Handles bumps and resists rust while fitting into drums, barrels, and IBC totes.
- Removable mesh intake screen - Traps tank sediment and unscrews by hand when you need to rinse it out.
- Insulated battery clamps with power switch - Clamps onto truck or tractor battery posts for field refueling.
Applications
- Filling excavators, site generators, and work trucks from mobile bed-mounted tanks.
- Pumping diesel out of 55-gallon drums into mowers, tractors, and work vans.
- Moving non-potable water out of holding tanks, rain barrels, or boat bilges.
Key Compatibility Differences
A diesel pump kit is built specifically for heavier fluids like diesel, general fuel oils, and water. A frequent trade question is whether you can use a diesel transfer pump for gasoline. The answer is strictly no. Petrol has a low flash point well below 43°c and even below 45°f, producing volatile vapours that standard submersible motors cannot safely manage. This explains why fuel transfer pump models rated for diesel are not suitable gasoline units, as petrol requires specialised explosion-proof motors and seals. Running petrol through this gold-finish stainless steel assembly creates a serious fire hazard and degrades internal seals designed strictly for diesel and water.
What It Is
A diesel transfer pump is a dedicated mechanical device designed to siphon and shift fuel from bulk storage directly into machinery, vehicles, or holding tanks. This product type is a complete portable 12V and 24V diesel pump kit featuring a 51 mm diameter submersible body constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel. It connects directly to low-voltage power supplies to deliver off-grid fluid movement on site. Supplied with a 4 m hose and a matching refueling gun, the kit provides an all-in-one setup that allows operators to access deep barrels and dispense fluid cleanly without splashing or airlocks.
Key Uses & Applications
This pump kit handles rapid fluid shifting across plant, transport, and agricultural environments. Typical trade applications include:
- Transferring diesel directly from storage barrels or site bowsers into plant machinery, commercial vehicles, and backup generators.
- Moving clean water out of flooded footings, sumps, or site containers where a compact 51 mm diameter tool is required.
- Dispensing fuel accurately into plant tanks using the attached 4 m hose and refueling gun without manual pouring.
Always inspect hose connections before connecting to 12V or 24V power, and never run the pump dry inside empty drums.

A: This diesel pump kit includes a 51mm stainless steel submersible pump, a 4-meter delivery hose, and a manual refueling nozzle. It also comes with battery clips and an inline power switch.. Q: How does the stainless steel build handle field use? A: The stainless steel body prevents rust and handles frequent drops against drum openings without cracking. A removable mesh filter at the base keeps coarse tank sediment out of the impeller.. Q: Will the 51mm pump body fit into standard 55-gallon drums? A: Yes, standard metal and plastic drums feature 2-inch bung holes that measure around 56mm across. The 51mm body slides directly inside with room to spare.. Q: What warranty protects this refueling set? A: The set comes with a 12-month warranty on the submersible motor and internal seals. If the motor burns out under normal fuel handling, the seller replaces the unit.. Q: Why buy this complete bundle instead of a bare pump? A: Buying the components together saves you the cost of sourcing a fuel-rated hose and nozzle separately. Everything comes clamped and ready to move fuel straight out of the box..
