Tri-Clamp RipTide™ Brewing Pump
Discover the Tri-Clamp RipTide™ Brewing Pump, engineered by Blichmann Engineering for serious homebrewers. This powerful pump eliminates heavy lifting and unreliable gravity transfers. Whether you’re whirlpooling hop additions or transferring wort, the RipTide™ Brewing Pump improves control, safety, and flavor. It includes a 10-foot cord and power switch to keep plugs away from wet areas. Notably, the Tri-Clamp RipTide™ Brewing Pump uses a carbon fiber protection sleeve to help prevent damage caused by dry usage.
Two Models, One Purpose: Precision
Choose the version that fits your brewing setup. The RipTide™ Brewing Pump with Tri-Clamp fittings offers sanitary, easy-to-clean connections. The NPT model provides traditional threaded fittings for broader compatibility. Both models feature a rugged stainless steel head and a magnetic drive with a curved blade impeller. They deliver 7 GPM and 21 feet of lift through ½” inlet/outlet fittings. These are ideal for quick disconnects, camlocks, or other common brewing hardware.
The pull-ring relief valve prevents cavitation. The built-in linear flow valve allows direct flow control, so there’s no need for extra hardware. Whether you’re recirculating during the mash or transferring to a fermenter, the RipTide™ Brewing Pump provides smooth, reliable flow.
Whisper-Quiet and Maintenance-Friendly
The splash-proof motor case keeps the RipTide™ Brewing Pump quiet during operation. It reduces brew-day noise while maintaining powerful performance. The rotating pump head allows for flexible positioning. Tool-free disassembly makes cleaning fast and easy, especially for cool wort transfers where sanitation matters most.
The Tri-Clamp version provides an extra level of cleanliness for brewers who prioritize sanitation. The NPT model works with a wide range of brewing setups.
Tri-Clamp RipTide™ Brewing Pump: A Legacy of Innovation
The RipTide™ Brewing Pump was the first homebrewing pump built for precision from the ground up. As a result, it set the industry standard for precision and performance.

The RipTide™ is the only pump designed specifically for homebrewing. As a team of avid homebrewers and a company dedicated to customer feedback, we have spent years designing and perfecting the perfect pump for you. The RipTide™ pump out-flows the competition while running at three times the efficiency!* Due to the curved blade impeller, you can now pump over one gallon per minute faster at the same pressure as the competition’s pump. Plus, when the flow rate decreases, the pressure increases to provide a better whirlpool, cleaner wort, and faster chilling.
