Gear Pump Market Outlook Accelerating at 4.9% CAGR Through 2031

The Gear Pump Market is experiencing steady growth driven by rising demand for efficient and reliable fluid handling solutions across industries such as oil and gas, chemical and petrochemical, automotive, food and beverage, water treatment, and industrial machinery. Gear pumps are widely used due to their ability to deliver consistent flow, handle high-pressure operations, and manage a wide range of fluid viscosities.
Published 12 January 2026

New York, US – Gear Pump is a positive displacement pump that uses two meshing gears—typically external spur or helical types to trap fixed volumes of fluid between gear teeth and the pump housing, delivering steady, pulseless flow ideal for viscous liquids in industrial, hydraulic, and medical applications. In DVT preventive contexts like intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) devices, gear pumps act as compact air compressors, generating precise cyclic pressure (30-50 mmHg) to inflate leg sleeves sequentially and boost venous return by 200-400%.

Market Growth Analysis

The gear pump market is projected to reach US$ 15.4 billion by 2031 from US$ 11.22 billion in 2024, registering a CAGR of 4.9% during the forecast period of 2025–2031. Rising demand for energy-efficient fluid transfer solutions and growth across industrial sectors are driving this expansion. Increasing industrial automation, infrastructure development, and technological innovations in pump design further support market growth.

Gear Pump Market Overview

A gear pump is a positive displacement pump that moves fluids through interlocking gears. Unlike centrifugal pumps, which rely on impellers to generate flow, gear pumps trap fluids between rotating gear teeth and the pump casing, ensuring a consistent and precise flow rate.

Types of gear pumps include:

  • Internal Gear Pumps
  • External Gear Pumps

Gear pumps are widely used in industries such as chemical and petrochemical, oil and gas, automotive, industrial machinery, food and beverage, water treatment, and aerospace due to their reliability and ability to handle a range of fluid viscosities.

Key features of gear pumps:

  • High-pressure operation suitable for industrial tasks
  • Efficient handling of low and high viscosity fluids
  • Durable design minimizing wear and maintenance
  • Compact and energy-efficient operation
