Title: Gear pump disappointment
Post by: Tony on May 21, 2013, 11:32:48 PM

I guess I found out why this one was being scrapped - though it was nice of Head Womble to save it for me!

So I'm on the look out for a small, cheap three phase gear pump...

They were all remove as part of an upgrade, and were supposed to be in working condition.

I may be able to get you another one if you want it.

Possibly but the broken bit had chewed up the seal part of the pump too.

I was looking at one today, from the same batch as yours.
But the owner isn't about at the moment, I'll ask about it next time I see him.
