Virden Perma-Bilt Engineering Department is now offering 1-7/8" x 24" windmill cylinder barrels with caps at one-third the price they are selling now. These barrels and caps are made from thick heavy wall PVC and then lined with our durable urethane/epoxy. These windmill working barrels are as good as any brass barrels on the market. The thick wear resistant urethane/epoxy lining assures long life and true check strokes. Our PVC urethane/epoxy lined Perma barrel connects right to your pipe (steel or PVC).

These durable urethane/epoxy lined barrels are doing a wonderful job right now. The revolutionary breakthrough of Virden Perma-Bilt urethane/epoxy, which is used to line the PVC working barrel, and the ingenious method of the actual lining process, is what makes the windmill barrel a true value in this day of climbing costs! A brass barrel and caps can be at least 3 times higher than our urethane/epoxy lined Perma barrel. Our 24" length allows up to 2 changes of stroke and even these will be far in between. These Perma barrels can be used with pump jacks.

We also have a simulated windmill pump in operation in our showroom, which operates 365 days a year with our Virden Perma Barrel for your inspection.

Old style black jack leathers can be used, but we definitely recommend our life-time urethane Perma cups and urethane cast checks. Black jack leathers and brass can be used.
