An apparatus for pumping molten metal includes a pump base comprised of non-metallic, heat resistant material and adapted to be submerged in a bath of molten metal. The pump base includes a molten metal inlet opening; a molten metal valve chamber in communication with the inlet opening; a molten metal pumping chamber; a passageway that communicates the valve chamber and the pumping chamber and a molten metal outlet opening that communicates with the pumping chamber. A first piston made of non-metallic, heat resistant material is adapted for reciprocal movement in the valve chamber. A second piston made of non- metallic, heat resistant material is adapted for reciprocal movement in the pumping chamber. A first connecting member extends upwardly from the first piston and a second connecting member extends upwardly from the second piston. At least one actuator is in communication with the first and second connecting members. The at least one actuator acts upon the first and second connecting members to effect the reciprocal movement of the first and second pistons. When used in a die casting apparatus, also featured is a shot chamber disposed near the discharge opening for receiving molten metal discharged from the conduit. A ram is disposed in the chamber for injecting the molten metal in the chamber into a die for casting the molten metal.
