Suitable conditions
Distribution: tens of thousands in Pakistan & Afghanistan.<br>
In Pakistan and in Afghanistan, the use of stainless steel components is uncommon; therefore, these pumps should not be used as substitutes for the [[Afridev pump]].
 
However, there are some similarities (and differences) with the Afridev deep pump:<br>
* It is suitable for bore holes (with same casing size as in Afridev Water Hand Pump) and hand dug well.
* Pump body, stand (Pedestal), Top Cover, Rubber Components, Plastic Components (Foot valve and Plunger) and Cylinder except Plunger Rods are the same as Afridev Water Hand Pumps.
* Handle is stronger and Heavy; Ball bearing with different pins and hosting is used this pump instead of Plastic bearing.
* Pump Rod used in this pump is “Double Hook & Eye”, and is completely different from Afridev Hand Pumps rod.
