Procure the ideal peristaltic pump for your high-accuracy fluid handling requirements. As a critical component within our broader Laboratory equipment selection, these positive displacement systems provide reliable dosing and transfer for clinical and industrial applications. Our range features industry-leading models from Cole-Parmer and Masterflex. We also feature high-precision liquid handling components from Sigma and Gilson, ensuring you have access to compatible silicone tubing and high-performance pump heads.
Peristaltic Pumps
Optimising Workflow with a High-Performance Peristaltic Pump
Our curated collection of peristaltic pumps delivers high-capacity performance and operational flexibility for technical environments:
- Contamination-Free Transfer: Utilise advanced systems from Cole-Parmer to keep fluids entirely isolated within the tubing, ensuring sterile processing for pharmaceuticals and clinical diagnostics.
- Scalable Industrial Dosing: Deploy high-torque Masterflex drives to handle abrasive chemical slurries and high-viscosity media in manufacturing facilities, a capability often missing in basic laboratory-grade models.
- Precision Component Integration: Directly equip your existing setup with chemical-resistant pump heads and durable silicone tubing for exact volumetric accuracy across repeated batches.
How to Choose the Right Peristaltic Pump
Selecting the correct peristaltic pump for your facility requires evaluating several technical parameters:
- Flow Rate Capacity: Assess your required output, ranging from micro-litres per minute for analytical chemistry to high-volume continuous transfer for wastewater management.
- Tubing Compatibility: Verify that the selected hose material resists aggressive reagents and matches the pressure ratings required for your specific industrial application.
- Operational Control: Determine if your workflow requires manual variable-speed control, programmable batch dispensing, or automated remote integration via standard industrial protocols.
Complete Your Fluid Transfer Setup
Versatile equipment is essential for comprehensive facility management. To further optimise your workspace, we recommend exploring these related categories:
- Laboratory general purpose tubing: Secure the exact silicone, chemical-resistant, or high-pressure hoses required to safely operate your chosen drive unit.
- Laboratory filtration hardware or accessories: Ensure sterile media transfer by integrating compatible inline filters directly into your fluid handling circuit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are peristaltic pumps self priming?
Yes, a peristaltic pump is inherently self-priming. The rotating shoes or rollers create a strong internal vacuum as they compress and release the tubing, allowing the system to draw fluid automatically without requiring manual priming or external check valves.
Do peristaltic pumps need to be primed?
No, they do not require manual priming before operation. Because they function as positive displacement units, they can safely run dry and instantly pull liquid from a supply tank, making them highly efficient for intermittent dosing and tank stripping applications.
How can we procure wholesale peristaltic pump tubing and drives for a new facility?
You can arrange bulk purchasing and scheduled inventory delivery directly through our commercial team. We provide tailored supply agreements and professional calibration services for manufacturing plants and clinical laboratories, ensuring continuous operational compliance.
