Efficient fluid handling plays a vital role in maintaining production quality and speed. Inconsistent flow or pressure can lead to challenges like uneven application, increased waste, or operational slowdowns. For industrial operations working with low- to medium-viscosity fluids, having reliable pumping solutions helps ensure smooth, predictable performance across your processes.
Select the right range:
- Small Flow - Up to 8 l/min (2 gpm)
- Medium Flow - Up to 24 l/min (6 gpm)
- High Flow - Up to 69 l/min (18 gpm)
- High Pressure - Up to 413 bar (6000 psi)
Proven Solutions for Diverse Applications
ARO 2-ball pneumatic piston pumps are among the most versatile in our product line. Designed to handle materials up to 100,000 centipoise with flow rates reaching 18.1 gpm (68.5 L/min), these pumps adapt to diverse industrial needs—from spray finishing and material supply to extrusion and lubrication. The two-ball check design provides the foundation for uniform delivery, while pneumatic operation offers flexibility across multiple applications and operating conditions.
Applications Where 2-Ball Pumps Excel
- Spray: Constant flow rate and pressure deliver consistent coatings applications, ensuring uniform coverage and finish quality.
- Transfer & Supply: Flow rates up to 18.1 gpm (68.5 L/min) keep production lines supplied, eliminating material delivery delays. Suitable for coatings, paints, oils, and chemicals.
- Extrusion: Generate pressure needed for low- to medium-viscosity materials, maintaining consistent bead quality for sealants and adhesives.
- Lubrication: Move light oils and grease lubricants to critical machinery and equipment.
- High-Pressure Cleaning: Portable wash pump packages for industrial cleaning applications.
What Sets These Pumps Apart
- Uniform Flow for Consistent Quality
The two-ball check design delivers smooth, uniform fluid flow at precise pressure—maintaining the consistency that keeps quality high and rework low across spray, transfer, and dispensing applications. - Handle Sensitive and Abrasive Materials
Minimized friction points help prevent fluid shear, protecting sensitive materials during transfer. Smooth internal passages maintain consistency with abrasive and high-solid materials. Optional ceramic coating offers additional protection against highly abrasive fluids. - Straightforward Pneumatic Operation
Fewer moving parts mean simpler maintenance and no motor burnout risk. Pneumatic components are field-serviceable and built for long life in industrial environments. - Lower Total Cost of Ownership
Reliable performance reduces material waste and unplanned maintenance. Consistent output improves quality while lowering overall operating costs. - Comprehensive Support from Specification to Service
Our technical team brings decades of fluid handling experience. We help you select the right pump configuration for your materials and application requirements, then provide ongoing support to keep your operation running smoothly.

Why flow stability matters in adhesive production
Your formulation hasn't changed. Your process parameters look identical. Yet one batch passes quality control with flying colors while the next gets rejected for inconsistent viscosity or trapped air bubbles. The real issue? Unstable flow during transfer and dispensing.
