Milwaukee 2579-20 M12™ Stick Transfer Pump
9 GPM Instant Water Extraction. HYDROPASS™ 360° Anti-Clog Filter. Deep 36" Reach.
The Milwaukee Stick Transfer Pump 2579-20 brings revolutionary one-handed pumping mobility directly to tight jobsite water extractions. Moving water at a fast rate of up to 9 gallons per minute (GPM), this compact utility pump completely eliminates the grueling muscle strain of repetitive manual hand pumps and siphon setups. Whether you are clearing flooded water meter boxes, draining clogged catch basins, purging mud-filled trenches, or emptying deep sump pits, it delivers up to 275 gallons of continuous water transfer per charge when paired with a single 4.0Ah battery pack.
Precision engineering and exceptional field protection define this subcompact wand. The 2579-20 features a highly durable, 36-inch submersible aluminum barrel that stretches deep into awkward or restricted underground utility bays while allowing the user to remain safely standing on dry ground. To combat the severe sand, silt, and organic matter found on common jobsites, it is equipped with proprietary HYDROPASS™ Filter Technology. This unique 360-degree micro-mesh intake shroud maximizes water intake volume while filtering out heavy debris—completely preventing internal impeller jams and minimizing irritating cleaning downtime.
Why the Milwaukee M12™ Stick Transfer Pump Solves the Sump Pit Mess:
- Rapid 9 GPM Flow Performance: Pushes water efficiently out of deep utility holes with an impressive 15-foot maximum head height.
- HYDROPASS™ 360° Filtration: Advanced micro-mesh intake prevents mud, leaves, and structural grit from locking up the internal motor.
- 36-Inch Aluminum Submersible Reach: Deep wand extension completely isolates the battery from wet environments while keeping the operator clean.
- Standard 3/4" Male Brass Outlet: Hooks up directly to standard North American garden hoses for fast, straightforward water routing setups.
- Ergonomic One-Handed Command: Lightweight, beautifully balanced handle profile requires only a single hand to operate, freeing your other hand to direct your hose.
