Despite their seemingly simple design, Mityvac hand pumps offer a long list of unique features, many of them patent protected, which continue to make them superior to all other hand pumps on the market. Mityvac’s Silverline pumps are constructed primarily of zinc-aluminum die cast components, giving them greater durability while keeping them lightweight. This additional level of durability is required for tough working environments such as maintenance or service shops.
With a little care and maintenance, Silverline pumps will provide a lifetime of flawless performance. Many applications for Mityvac hand pumps require pressure rather than vacuum. For example, a turbocharger waste gate requires pressure to test for proper function and accuracy. It’s also convenient for testing cooling systems to determine the source of leaks that can lead to overheating and severe engine damage.
To fulfill the needs of modern service technicians, Mityvac Silverline dual pressure/vacuum pumps offer a switch that allows the operator to alternate between vacuum and pressure at the front port. These pumps include a compound gauge that indicates both pressure and vacuum levels.
