MARK-3® Portable High-Pressure Fire Pump

Launched in 1964, the MARK-3® lightweight portable pump has been the pump of choice for most wildland fire agencies around the world for decades. Backed by its proven record, the MARK-3® pump today is known for high performance, reliability and durability. Its consistent high-pressure output, ability to pump in tandem or series, and toughness to withstand the rigours of firefighting have made the MARK-3® the core of most remote water-delivery systems in wildland fire suppression. Following a series of improvements in 2015, today the MARK-3® gives new meaning to durability and reliability.

Since 1964 when the MARK-3® was first introduced by WAJAX, after the 4-stage detachable pump end was patented in 1958, it has been the standard wildland portable fire pump used by forestry agencies around the world. A truly outstanding and reliable performer, the MARK-3® fire pump is designed to withstand the rigors of firefighting and it is the core of most water delivery systems in wildland operations.

Always the benchmark in terms of performance, reliability and durability, the MARK-3® benefited from a series of improvements to its key components namely a Nikasil-coated cylinder, an impregnated crankcase and a maintenance-free pump end.

The new Nikasil Coated Cylinder is the most significant upgrade on the MARK-3® in years. In addition, WATERAX has adjusted its recommended fuel mix ratio to 50:1 synthetic. Please note that the change to the synthetic 50:1 fuel mix ratio is also valid for older MARK-3® equipped with cast iron sleeve cylinders.

The improved MARK-3® successfully passed the USDA Forest Service 100 hours endurance test in San Dimas on 08/04/15 and has been requalified under QPL Number 274-001.
