    Default Mag drive 9.5

    Anyone use this pump externally before?

    Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It's already tomorrow in Australia.

    Mags are historically known to leak. Although they are supposed to be external pumps, I wouldn't use one externally.

    I was thinking of using one to plumb two 55 gallon barrels together. To mix saltwater.

    i have used a 9.5 and a 18 externally before and they both leaked...salt in the water helped to plug them up but it also rusted the screws

    That's about the same I have heard. Was hoping maybe some one had better luck with them.
