Do you want a lubrication pump or a coolant pump?
For coolant pumps, many people just use off the shelf aquarium pumps with water-based coolant.

Yep, I used a relatively cheap pond pump for my CNC machine.

It just could be handy if possible to find everything here

We can't carry everything. Soon we would be carrying groceries, toiletries, household items, etc.
