Description

When your aluminum transfer pump starts losing prime or won’t build pressure like it should, a worn check valve is often the culprit. This little component is what keeps liquid from flowing backward through the pump when it shuts off, maintaining prime so you’re ready to go the next time you fire it up. Without a good check valve, you’ll be dealing with air locks and losing precious time re-priming your pump every time you need to move fuel or chemicals.

What You’re Getting

Precision-machined aluminum construction that matches your pump body perfectly
Spring-loaded design that seals tight against reverse flow but opens easily for forward pumping
Direct replacement part that installs without any modifications or adapters
Corrosion-resistant materials that handle diesel, chemicals, and other farm liquids
Reliable operation that maintains pump prime between uses

Built for Real Farm Work

This check valve is designed for AgSmart 2-inch aluminum transfer pumps commonly used around farms and ranches. Whether you’re transferring diesel to equipment, moving liquid fertilizer, or pumping chemicals for crop protection, these pumps see heavy use in demanding conditions. The aluminum construction handles temperature swings and resists corrosion from various liquids, making it ideal for the diverse fluids you might need to move during busy seasons.

Made to Last

Farm transfer pumps take abuse from constant use, varying temperatures, and different chemicals. This check valve is built with materials that won’t deteriorate when exposed to diesel fuel, hydraulic oil, or agricultural chemicals. The spring mechanism is designed to cycle thousands of times without losing tension, ensuring consistent sealing performance season after season.

Installation Notes

Replacing the check valve is straightforward but requires draining the pump first. Clean the valve seat thoroughly to ensure proper sealing – any debris will cause the valve to leak. The new valve should seat snugly without forcing, and you’ll know it’s working when the pump holds prime after shutdown.
