Improved safety

With Prime-a-Pump there are no health risks to the pump operators, either through skin contact, dust inhalation or with lifting heavy weights, making it safer, easier and cheaper to use than current methods.

Prime-a-Pump is a much superior alternative to the existing methods. It is a dry powder specifically formulated to provide a transparent, odourless, clean and economic alternative to cement/water pump priming, and without any of the old problems. It is suitable for use in all types of concrete pumps and pipeline systems.

Easy to use

A small sachet of Prime-a-Pump is simply emptied and stirred into 15ltrs of water, left for 15 minutes to thicken prior to the start of pumping operations. During this time, the mixture thickens and takes on a slippery texture, which adheres to all the pump's internal surfaces once it is applied.
