US gear pump market is driven by strong demand from oil and gas, chemical processing, and food and beverage industries. Growing industrial automation and the need for reliable fluid transfer solutions continue to support steady growth.

The Gear pump market size is projected to reach US$ 15.4 billion by 2031 from US$ 11.22 billion in 2024. The market is expected to register a CAGR of 4.9% during 2025-2031. Rising demand for energy-efficient solutions is likely to bring new key trends in the market in the coming years.

How These Pumps Work

A gear pump is a positive displacement pump that moves fluids through interlocking gears. Unlike centrifugal pumps, which rely on an impeller, gear pumps trap fluid between the teeth of rotating gears and the pump casing. This delivers a continuous and exact flow rate. The two types are external and internal. Both provide consistent flow, operate at high pressure, and handle fluids ranging from low-viscosity solvents to high-viscosity oils and adhesives. Their basic design also means less part wear and easier maintenance.

What Is Driving Demand

Gear pumps are known for dependability and efficiency, with volumetric efficiencies that often surpass 90% across a wide range of viscosity values. The chemical and petrochemical industries are growing worldwide and are prominent end users.

Oil and gas activity is another strong driver. The IEA Oil Market Report published in 2024 notes that global oil demand is set to reach 103.9 mb/d in 2025, with refinery throughputs peaking at 84.3 mb/d in December 2025. Manufacturers are also pursuing mergers and acquisitions to broaden their portfolios. Technological advancements that improve efficiency, reliability and adaptability should further support growth.

Segment Performance

External gear pumps held the larger share of the market in 2024, accounting for 74.1%. By pressure range, the 100 to 300 bar segment held the largest share, while the up to 100 bar segment is expected to grow fastest at a CAGR of 5.2%. By end-use industry, industrial and material handling machines led with a 24.6% share in 2024. Other industries covered include food and beverage, chemical and petrochemical, oil and gas, automotive, water treatment and aerospace.

Regional Dynamics

North America, Europe and Asia Pacific are the major regions witnessing significant growth.

• North America: New electric car registrations in the US reached 1.4 million in 2023, a rise of more than 40% over 2022. The region’s natural gas industry is also expanding.
• Europe: The oil and gas industry is growing, and the water and wastewater sector is gaining traction at a fast pace.
• Asia Pacific: The region is expected to record the highest CAGR, at 5.4%. China’s commercial vehicle sales rose 22% to 4.03 million units in 2023, and Japan sold 4.78 million new cars, up 13.8% year-on-year.
• Middle East and Africa: Saudi Aramco announced seven new oil and gas discoveries in July 2024, and companies are expanding their production plants.
