The GB range is a heated gear pump (unheated option available) designed for pumping products that have to be heated to be pumpable. The design can incorporate heating by thermostatically controlled electricity, thermal oil or steam. Heated gear pumps are typically used for Bitumen, Crude Oil or Refined Tar among other generally viscous fluids. Our pumps are often supplied with a greaser which can be mounted remotely to allow easy greasing of the seal cartridge and give the best possible service life. The GB style features a seal cartridge to avoid leakage normally associated with bitumen pumps.
