Fill-Rite

About Fill-Rite: Over 60 Years of Fuel Transfer Excellence

When it comes to moving fuel reliably and safely, few names carry more weight than Fill-Rite. With roots stretching back to the Ossian Engineering Company, Fill-Rite was formally established under Tuthill Transfer Systems in 1961 and has since grown into one of North America's most recognized names in fuel and chemical transfer equipment. In 2022, the Fill-Rite and Sotera brands became part of The Gorman-Rupp Company, joining a broader family of flow control innovators with a combined legacy of over 150 years of industry experience.

For more than six decades, Fill-Rite's iconic red pumps have been designed and manufactured at their facility in Fort Wayne, Indiana — a point of pride that underscores the brand's commitment to American craftsmanship using globally sourced materials. Their products serve a remarkably diverse range of demanding industries, from agriculture and construction to fleet management, municipalities, logging, and mining. Wherever fuel needs to move efficiently and accurately, Fill-Rite equipment is likely on the job.

A Complete Ecosystem for Fuel Transfer

What sets Fill-Rite apart is not just the quality of any single product, but the breadth of their system-level approach to fuel handling. At the core of their lineup are their fuel transfer units — self-contained systems designed for quick, efficient transfer of diesel, gasoline, and other fuels from bulk storage to equipment or vehicles in the field. These units are built for durability under heavy use, making them a go-to choice for contractors, farmers, and fleet operators.

Complementing those systems is Fill-Rite's extensive range of oil, diesel, and fuel transfer pumps — the workhorses of any fluid management operation. Whether you need a rotary vane pump for steady, high-volume transfer or a compact unit for occasional top-offs, Fill-Rite engineers their pumps to deliver consistent flow rates with minimal maintenance.

No fuel transfer setup is complete without the right plumbing. Fill-Rite's fuel transfer hose and fuel hose options are built to handle the rigors of petroleum products — resistant to fuel permeation, abrasion, and environmental exposure. Paired with Fill-Rite's fuel filters, which help protect downstream equipment from contaminants and water intrusion, these accessories round out a complete, cohesive fuel management system.
