FlowPro 1 Inch x 6 Foot Self-Priming Shaker Siphon Hose for Gas, Fuel, Water and Oil Transfer

The FlowPro Self-Priming Shaker Siphon Hose is a hand-operated siphon that transfers gasoline, fuel, water, oil, and other liquids between containers without an electric pump or battery. Insert the hose into the source container, shake it up and down rapidly, and the self-priming action starts liquid flowing into the destination container with no sucking on the hose and no spills or leaks during transfer. The heavy-duty tubing is made of petroleum-safe materials that resist kinking and will not yellow over time, and the hose incorporates anti-static materials that help inhibit sparks when transferring flammable liquids such as gasoline. A lead-free copper nozzle is fitted to the outlet end and is sized to fit most containers, while an industrial-grade glass ball inside the assembly supports the self-priming action and is built to withstand frequent, repeated use without breaking.

This siphon measures 1 inch in outside diameter and 72 inches (6 feet) in length, making it suited to fuel tanks, gas cans, and other containers found around boats, jet skis, pontoons, cars, and small engines. Its intended uses span marine, motor vehicle, and home maintenance applications, and it is also suited to industrial settings, aquaculture, and pool and hot tub care, including draining hot tubs and cold plunge tubs. One siphon hose is included per unit.
