Abstract
A fluid dispenser member, such as a pump, having a body (11) for mounting in the opening of a fluid reservoir so as to take fluid therefrom. The body (11) has a fluid chamber (15) that defines a fluid inlet in the form of a socket (12). The dispenser member includes a dip tube (2) for extending into the fluid reservoir so as to take fluid therefrom, the dispenser member further having a reducer sleeve (3) that internally receives an end (21) of the dip tube (2), and that is engaged axially in the socket (12) of the body (11), such that fluid communication is established between the dip tube (2) and the chamber (15) of the body (11). The dip tube (2) presents an outside diameter less than 1 mm and is made of a material that is transparent or translucent.
