West System Pumps Compatible with Sea Hawk Epoxy

Does anyone know whether the West System epoxy pumps fit onto the cans of Sea Hawk epoxy? Looking at the containers online, they look similar, but I'm wondering if I need to get a new set of pumps to put onto the Sea Hawk cans. I know they are both 5 to 1 so the mix ratio should be okay, it's more about can compatibility (thread)

I don't know the answer to your question, but if they turn out to be incompatible you could decant the Sea Hawk stuff into the West cans.

I unfortunately don't have any west systems cans. I have the west systems pumps, but can only get Sea Hawk where I am currently located.

Re: West System Pumps Compatible with Sea Hawk Epoxy

Paint Cans are, generally, a commodity item, supplied to paint manufacturers in standard [not unique] dimensions.
So, a WEST pump should fit a Sea Hawk can, of the same volume, & vice versa.
