The West Marine Vacuum Pump typically features a compact size, often around 12-18 inches in length, and is designed for marine use. It is constructed from durable materials such as high-impact plastic or corrosion-resistant metals like stainless steel. The pump is rated for handling fluids with low to medium viscosity, such as water, oil, or fuel. Buoyancy is not a primary specification, as it is not designed to float. The grade is marine-grade, ensuring resistance to saltwater and harsh environments. Specific models may vary in exact dimensions and material composition.
For West Marine Pumps (general), common specifications include sizes ranging from small portable units (6-12 inches) to larger fixed installations (up to 24 inches). Materials often include ABS plastic, bronze, or stainless steel for corrosion resistance. These pumps handle fluids with viscosities suitable for bilge water, freshwater, or fuel transfer. Buoyancy is not applicable, as they are not buoyant devices. The grade is marine-certified, meeting industry standards for durability and performance in marine applications.
