## About <!--about-->
Includes any products that can be described/observed as a gear pump. A gear pump utilizes a pair of rotating gears inside a chamber (one gear driving the other) that moves and pushes the fluid out towards the other end of the pump. As the gears spin, it traps fluid between the gear teeth and the inside wall of the pump. The trapped fluid is then pushed in the direction the gear is spinning, eventually releasing out of the other side.

### Excludes

Excludes products such as Dynamic Pumps, Reciprocating Pumps, Pneumatic Pumps and Pumps not specifically designed for use with Fluids.
Specifically excludes other Rotary Pumps.
