Tuthill GlobalGear and HD pumps are suitable for pumping asphalt and are used in many asphalt applications, including Bulk Transfer, Loading/Unloading of Tankers, (highway and rail types), Transferring from main storage-tank to production tanks, Feeding of production installation, e.g. production of roof shingles, and Mobile road repair equipment.
In most applications asphalt is pumped at temperatures of 270 ºF to 400 ºF to reduce the viscosity (100 to 7500cPs) and ease processing. To maximize efficiency of pumps in asphalt service, Tuthill has incorporated a range of options that make our pumps ideal for various asphalt applications.
