BACOENG 1 1/2 Gallon Tempered Glass Lid Vacuum Chamber with Pump, Stainless

The BACOENG 1.5 Gallon Vacuum Chamber with Pump is an all-in-one system designed to remove air bubbles from liquids, making it ideal for crafters, woodworkers, and bait makers. It pairs a stainless steel degassing pot with a dedicated vacuum pump to provide a complete setup right out of the box. Whether you are stabilizing wood blanks or degassing soft plastisol, this kit creates the negative pressure required to draw out trapped pockets of air.

At the center of the system is a 3.6 CFM pump powered by an all-copper motor and an integrated tank. It pulls down to -29.92 inHg to ensure deep vacuum levels while maintaining relatively low operating noise. The setup connects easily using the included 5-foot reinforced vacuum hose, which threads straight to the pump with standard 1/4-inch SAE connections, while the built-in vacuum gauge lets you monitor negative pressure from 0 to 30 inHg in real time.

The chamber itself measures 8.66 inches in inner diameter by 5.9 inches tall and features a durable stainless steel body paired with a tough silicone gasket rated for over 10,000 uses without deterioration. Its tempered glass lid provides 92% light transmittance, giving you a crystal-clear overhead view of your materials as they foam up. This glass construction is especially useful because it resists aggressive stabilizing resins like Cactus Juice, Gator Venom, and Minwax, as well as alcohol, ethanol, acetone, and acrylic-based monomers.

Because the chamber has a 1.5-gallon capacity, it is intended for small to medium projects rather than large-scale casting jobs. Users working on bigger items will find the 8.66-inch width and 5.9-inch height tight for tall molds. Additionally, the manufacturer does not specify the total weight or overall footprint of the pump unit.

Verdict: The BACOENG 1.5 Gallon Vacuum Chamber Kit is a solid, practical choice for hobbyists stabilizing wood, working with soft plastisol lures, or degassing specialty resins. It offers excellent solvent resistance and clear visibility for focused workshop projects.

A great fit if you:

• Stabilize wood using resins like Cactus Juice, Gator Venom, or Minwax.
• Need a clear glass lid to monitor defoaming while using alcohol, acetone, or ethanol.
• Pour soft plastisol to make custom fishing baits in smaller batches.
• Want a complete vacuum setup that includes both the chamber and a 3.6 CFM pump.

Consider something else if you:

• Need to degas large molds that exceed 8.66 inches across or 5.9 inches in height.
• Require a high-capacity chamber for high-volume commercial production.

What materials can I use inside this vacuum chamber?
The glass lid chamber is suitable for stabilizing resins (such as Cactus Juice, Gator Venom, and Minwax), alcohol, ethanol, acetone, acrylic-based monomers or polymers, and soft plastisol for fishing baits.

What are the internal dimensions of the chamber?
The stainless steel chamber features an inside diameter of 8.66 inches and a height of 5.9 inches, providing a 1.5-gallon total capacity.

How durable is the included silicone gasket?
The silicone gasket is designed for longevity and can be used over 10,000 times without deterioration.

What vacuum level does the pump achieve?
The 3.6 CFM pump delivers a vacuum level down to -29.92 inHg, monitored on a gauge that reads from 0 to 30 inHg.
