Hello. I've had this along time. Always assumed it was aviation. Got it from a guy who ran a White Rose gas station in middle of Saskatchewan.
Anybody know exactly what it is? Thanks for any help

A,W, Wheaton owned Weaton Brass Works and was well known for holding many patients on the inner workings of transfer tank trucks.
Could of been used on trucks , although they did produce some service station equipment. Knowing the flap spring loaded trigger you have on nozzle it makes sense that it was used maybe on truck that filled heating,lighting, and cooking oil for house holds using smaller tranfer cans.

Yes I know NO Help right.

OK so your inlet on your ride is bigger than a 5 or 10 transfer can mouth?
Just throwing it out there he asked for ideas.
Could of been for aviation as suggested trucks fuel planes.
The station owner could of used it on above ground holding tank.
Would of been handy to have asked him what he used it for.

Good Luck.-- Someone will be along with more smarts than I.
I almost had to ride the short bus.

Thanks everyone. I asked the gentleman at that time. He bought the gas station in the 1960's, he found it on a dusty shelf. Never knew what it was used for.

Looks familiar though seems like I've seen it in a advertisement somewhere. Way before I owned it.
