High-Pressure 55:1 Pneumatic Grease Dispensing

The Balcrank LYNX 55:1 uses compressed air to operate its piston pump, providing the pressure multiplication needed to dispense grease through compatible high-pressure hoses and control handles.

Its 55:1 pump ratio is designed to support lubrication applications involving grease fittings, bearings, pins, bushings, and other equipment lubrication points.

Unlike lower-pressure fluid transfer pumps, the LYNX 55:1 is specifically designed for dispensing viscous grease through properly rated lubrication equipment.

This makes the Balcrank 1151-028 a practical solution for workshops that maintain vehicles and machinery requiring frequent chassis and component lubrication.

Designed for 120 lb Grease Drums

The Balcrank 1151-028 is configured for a 120 lb (approximately 16-gallon) grease container, providing a convenient alternative to smaller grease cartridges and handheld grease guns.

The package's drum cover and follower plate are intended for properly matched 120 lb grease drums.

The follower plate rests against the grease surface and helps support consistent grease feeding into the pump while reducing air pockets as the drum empties.

This arrangement is especially useful for shops dispensing grease regularly throughout the workday.

Portable Grease Dispensing for Professional Shops

The 1151-028 is identified by Balcrank as a portable 120 lb grease pump package. It is intended for grease dispensing at different service locations rather than permanent overhead grease distribution systems.

Its portable configuration allows a properly equipped shop to position the grease supply near vehicles, machinery, and maintenance workstations.

The grease drum or keg is not included. Buyers must supply a compatible 120 lb grease container and confirm the complete package's mobility components before ordering.

Professional Grease Control Handle and Hose

The manufacturer's current catalog lists a Comfort Grip Grease Control Handle, designed for comfortable operation during repetitive lubrication work.

A 10-foot, 3/8-inch grease dispensing hose provides working reach between the pump and lubrication points.

The package also includes an air filter/regulator arrangement to help provide appropriately regulated compressed air to the pumping system.

Whether you're replacing an aging portable grease pump, upgrading a fleet maintenance lubrication station, or equipping a new service facility, the Balcrank 1151-028 LYNX 55:1 Portable Grease Pump Outfit offers a professional lubrication package designed for dependable high-pressure grease dispensing.

Why Choose the Balcrank LYNX 55:1 Grease Pump System?

High-Pressure Grease Delivery

The 55:1 pressure ratio helps deliver viscous grease to appropriate lubrication points using properly rated dispensing components.

Convenient 120 lb Drum Supply

The larger grease container capacity reduces reliance on individual grease cartridges for facilities with frequent lubrication requirements.

Follower Plate for Consistent Grease Feeding

The follower plate helps grease move toward the pump inlet as the container empties, reducing the possibility of air pockets interrupting delivery.

Comfortable Grease Dispensing

The Comfort Grip control handle is designed to provide convenient operation during repetitive lubrication tasks.

Practical Service Bay Mobility

A correctly equipped portable package allows maintenance personnel to position the grease supply near the equipment being serviced.

Integrated Pump Package

The manufacturer-listed pump, hose, regulator, handle, drum cover, and follower plate provide a coordinated starting point for a professional grease dispensing system.

Grease Compatibility and Installation Considerations

The LYNX 55:1 pump series is designed for high-pressure, low-volume grease dispensing, with Balcrank recommending approved grease up to NLGI #2.

Before installing the package, confirm the grease formulation, compressed air requirements, dispensing hose pressure rating, and drum dimensions.

The grease control handle, hose, fittings, and other pressure-containing components must be rated for the system's operating pressures.

Depressurize the system before disconnecting equipment or performing maintenance. High-pressure grease can penetrate skin and cause serious injury, so operators must follow the manufacturer's injection-injury precautions.

Important: Balcrank specifically advises that the LYNX 55:1 series is not recommended for piped overhead grease distribution systems. Its intended use is portable dispensing.
