Haight 1U Internal Gear Pump with Viton Lip Seal – No Relief Valve
The Haight 1U internal gear pump is engineered for dependable fluid transfer in demanding industrial environments. Built with durable ductile iron construction and equipped with a Viton lip seal, this compact positive displacement pump delivers reliable performance across lubrication, fuel handling, hydraulic, chemical, and OEM processing applications. Its “gear within a gear” internal design promotes smooth operation, efficient flow control, and reduced wear over extended operating cycles.
Designed without an integral relief valve, the Haight 1U pump offers installation flexibility for systems that already incorporate external pressure protection. The self-priming design supports efficient startup and dependable fluid movement, while the rugged steel shaft and gear components help maintain long-term durability in continuous-duty industrial operations. Viton sealing compatibility also makes the pump suitable for elevated temperatures and selected chemical fluids.
Compact and easy to maintain, the 1U series pump is commonly used in machine manufacturing, lubrication systems, hydraulic equipment, fuel transfer, food processing support systems, soap production, adhesive transfer, and industrial fluid circulation applications.
