Description
Flexible Shaft Trash Pump Canberra
Flextool’s Abrasion Resistant Submersible Pump is built for tough conditions. Known as the FP212A series, it works with both petrol and diesel portable drive units. This feature offers excellent flexibility for handling a variety of pumping tasks with ease.
Fast Startup with Self-Priming Technology
The pump includes a smart self-priming feature. It starts quickly and reduces downtime, getting to work right away. What makes it even better is the flexible drive shaft. This allows it to work in places where close-coupled pumps may not be suitable.
Designed for Heavy-Duty Applications
This isn’t just a pump—it’s a high-performance tool. It handles demanding jobs like working in quarries, sand pits, and slurry areas. Paired with a Flextool Lay Flat Hose, it becomes a reliable team that delivers strong results.
Built to Withstand Abrasive Environments
In tough conditions, this pump stands out. It features hardened steel wear plates that protect internal components. These plates help reduce wear and increase the life of the pump.
The choke-resistant impeller is made for extreme jobs. It handles foreign materials without clogging or overloading.
You can count on it to move solids up to 28 mm in diameter. This ensures smooth pumping, even with heavy or dirty water.
Rugged Design for Lasting Durability
This pump features heavy-duty, double-row oil bearings. These are built for long service life under rough conditions. Flexshaft support springs add extra protection. They are especially useful near sharp edges such as pits or excavation areas.
Resists Corrosion and Overheating
The stainless steel spindle resists corrosion, giving the pump a longer life. Inside, the oil bath bearings reduce wear. The oil bath system also prevents overheating during dry runs, protecting your investment.
Seven oil seals protect the bearings. This design lowers maintenance needs and ensures long-term performance.
Built-In Features for Easier Operation
Quick-action camlock hose fittings make setup easy and fast. You don’t need any tools, saving time on site.
The pump includes lifting eyelets. These make it easy to lower the pump into deep pits safely. They also protect the flexshaft from damage.
You’ll also get three 1 m support springs. These add stability when working over rough terrain. For jobs where the pump can’t rest on a surface, we include an 8-meter support rope for extra safety.
