Description
The Balcrank 1110-009 LYNX 1:1 Pneumatic Oil Transfer Pump is a professional-grade, air-operated piston pump designed for reliable lubricant transfer and dispensing in automotive repair shops, fleet maintenance facilities, dealerships, agricultural service centers, and industrial maintenance operations.
Featuring a 1:1 pump ratio, durable carbon steel construction, double-acting piston operation, and a height-adjustable 2-inch bung adapter, this drum-length oil pump provides an efficient solution for moving motor oil, hydraulic fluid, automatic transmission fluid (ATF), and compatible synthetic and mineral-based lubricants directly from a 55-gallon drum.
Part of Balcrank's trusted LYNX Pneumatic Oil Pump Series, the 1110-009 is engineered for maintenance facilities that require dependable oil transfer over shorter distances. Its drum-length design makes it particularly suitable for oil bars, portable lubrication packages, shop oil dispensing stations, and short-distance fluid distribution systems.
Unlike higher-ratio pumps intended for applications requiring greater pressure, the LYNX 1:1 is designed to provide convenient fluid transfer and relatively high flow at low discharge resistance.
Efficient 1:1 Pneumatic Oil Transfer Performance
The Balcrank 1110-009 uses a double-acting piston mechanism powered by compressed air to transfer lubricants from a storage drum to compatible dispensing equipment.
With an operating air pressure range of 45–150 PSI (3–10 bar), the pump can be integrated into appropriately regulated shop compressed air systems.
Balcrank publishes a maximum free-flow delivery rating of 10.6 gallons per minute (40 liters per minute) when tested with SAE 10W-30 motor oil at 68°F and 150 PSI compressed air pressure.
This performance makes the 1110-009 a practical solution for workshops that need convenient fluid transfer from a 55-gallon drum without installing a larger, higher-pressure distribution system.
Actual operating flow varies according to lubricant viscosity, temperature, air pressure, hose length, piping restrictions, and dispensing equipment.
Designed for 55-Gallon Oil Drums
The Balcrank 1110-009 features a drum-length suction tube and an adjustable 2-inch bung adapter, allowing installation into compatible 55-gallon oil drums.
The adjustable bung mounting arrangement helps position the pump correctly for the selected container, while the integrated drum-length pump tube provides direct access to the lubricant supply.
This configuration reduces the need for a separately purchased external suction tube when used with an appropriately sized drum.
The pump is supplied as a standalone unit with its bung adapter. The 55-gallon drum, lubricant, hose, regulator, and dispensing handle are not included.
Durable Carbon Steel Pump Construction
Manufactured for professional lubrication applications, the Balcrank LYNX 1:1 uses a carbon steel pumping arrangement with wetted materials consisting of steel, brass, aluminum, Buna-N, and polyurethane.
Its 1/4-inch NPT female air inlet connects to a properly sized compressed air supply, while the 3/4-inch NPT female fluid outlet connects to compatible oil hoses, fittings, and dispensing equipment.
The pump features a 1.375-inch effective air piston diameter, helping deliver dependable double-acting operation in routine oil transfer applications.
Practical for Oil Bars and Portable Lubrication Systems
For repair facilities using bulk oil drums, the Balcrank 1110-009 provides a convenient way to move lubricants to individual dispensing stations or service areas.
It can be incorporated into properly configured portable drum packages, oil bars, and other short-run lubrication installations.
Whether you're replacing an existing drum pump, setting up a new oil dispensing station, or improving lubricant handling efficiency, the Balcrank 1110-009 LYNX 1:1 Drum-Length Oil Pump provides dependable pneumatic performance for professional shops.
Important: The LYNX 1:1 is intended for short-distance, relatively low-resistance fluid transfer. Applications involving long piping runs, restrictive hose reels, or simultaneous dispensing points may require a higher-pressure pump.

The installed flow rate will depend on actual system resistance.
Pneumatic Double-Acting Operation
The pump operates using compressed air, eliminating the need for a directly mounted electric motor.
Its double-acting piston mechanism supports fluid transfer throughout the pumping cycle.
Durable Wetted Components
The specified steel, brass, aluminum, Buna-N, and polyurethane wetted materials support use with selected synthetic and petroleum-based lubricants.
Flexible Dispensing Equipment Options
The pump can be connected to appropriately selected oil hoses, dispensing handles, and portable lubrication equipment.
Professional Shop Reliability
The LYNX series is designed for maintenance facilities requiring serviceable pneumatic lubrication equipment.

The Balcrank 1110-009 is an appropriate choice for direct drum-length installation when transferring compatible lubricants from 55-gallon containers.
The Balcrank 1110-010 offers a shorter stub configuration that can be fitted with a separate suction tube for other compatible container arrangements.
The Balcrank 1160-008 provides a stainless steel alternative for applications where its wetted material construction is necessary.
Pressure Relief Valve and Installation Requirements
Balcrank identifies Pressure Relief Valve Kit 3120-086 as the applicable accessory for the LYNX 1:1 pump.
Thermal expansion can cause pressure increases in closed oil distribution systems, potentially damaging hoses, piping, dispensing equipment, and other components.
A correctly selected and installed pressure relief kit helps address this condition.
The 3120-086 kit is sold separately and should not be represented as included with the standalone 1110-009 pump.
All hoses, fittings, and piping must be rated for the system's potential pressure. Balcrank recommends a minimum 3× safety factor for hose fittings and piping.
