Afridev or India Mark 2: which hand pump to choose?
The Afridev hand pump suits community boreholes where the water level stays within 15 m to 45 m. If your water level is deeper, or your programme already stocks India Mark 2 spares, the India Mark 2 hand pump may be the better fit, and the extra deepwell version covers deeper boreholes still. The deciding factors are usually the depth of the water level in the dry season, the standard your tender or programme specifies, and which spare parts your local mechanics can already get. Tell us the borehole depth, internal diameter and number of pumps, and we will confirm whether an Afridev hand pump is the right choice and send you a quote.
