Why buy a Warthog
Once you look close at the design and materials used in the WARTHOG pump you will clearly see why you would choose a Warthog Pump
Patented floating pump
Only Warthog Pumps are manufactured out of 100% virgin high impact and abrasion resistant Polyethylene. Far superior in every way to a fibreglass housing. The new design makes the Warthog pump the highest pumping volume, longest lasting and most durable portable floating pump in the world.
Only Warthog Pumps have designed and utilize an Industrial duty Polypropylene camlock coupling system fully integrated into the new Warthog pump. Warthog is the only floating pump in the world with a six inch polypropylene camlock coupling.
Only Warthog Pumps use a revolutionary redesigned sieve that not only directs the incoming water into the impeller but also has an intake in the bottom to fully achieve the fluid dynamics that make this sieve far superior to any floating pump sieve in the world as well as the highest volume pump of its kind.
Only Warthog Pumps have an increased intake area in the sieve to reduce back pressure and improve flow and dynamic head.
Only Warthog Pumps have a redesigned volute to eliminate turbulence and loss of flow and dynamic head. Warthog pumps have an uninterrupted smooth water exit path that eliminates turbulence. Turbulence reduces the pump’s flow, lift and causes hoses to burst, but this will not happen in a Warthog pump.
All these revolutionary designs are part of the PATENTED Warthog Pump.
Patented Auxiliary floating fuel tank.
Made to EPA standards including the use of Cross Link LDPE to ensure we take care of our environment.
Provides 18–24 hours of run time before there is a need to refill.
Only Warthog Pumps can run over about 90 minutes before you need to go back and refuel.
What else sets WARTHOG apart from any other six inch, high volume, portable self priming floating pump?
Only Warthog Pumps use an actual COMMERCIAL duty engine complete with an oil filter and cannister air intake. No other manufacturer uses a larger HP engine than Warthog.
Only Warthog Pumps have couplings to connect the hose to the pump and to connect hoses to each other. Warthog has 2 options for their customers: a standard Polyethylene “insert and twist” coupling and the Industrial Polypropylene camlock couplings.
Only Warthog Pumps use hardened steel gears that mesh with each other. All other manufacturers mesh a small steel gear running at 3600 rpm into an aluminum gear. No more needs to be said about that pairing.
Only Warthog offers not only the standard hose offered by other manufacturers, but we also have a reinforced dual layer higher pressure and very durable hose designed for use when the standard hose may burst, and also for the commercial and industrial market that requires a hose that will take a lot of punishment.
Only Warthog has designed and offers the HHD-100 Hose hold-down kit. Not only can they be used to hold the hose down in a breeze, but also to stop the hose from rolling down a hill or to secure the hose to a plank or ramp. At Warthog we do not tell our customers to use coat hangers to hold the hose down — instead we designed a system that does the job perfectly and has a few other uses.
Only Warthog Pumps have been tested by swinging a 10 lb hammer with a 3 foot handle into the side of it 30 times in a few locations without damaging the pump. This hammer is used to drive in posts or bust up cement floors — now that shows it is a very durable, well-built pump.
Only Warthog Pumps have been tested by dropping them from a height of 6 feet onto a concrete floor on its bottom, corner of the sieve and on its side, 20 times in each location, without showing any damage. Then pushed off the back of a truck going down the highway without any damage to the housing or gearbox besides some scuffing. The engine itself had some busted plastic parts, but we knew that would happen. However, when placed in a stream it started up and pumped perfectly. It obviously is RUGGED, RELIABLE and READY.
