Oil and Grease pumps
Oil and Grease pumps
Mercury Pneumatics’ Oil and Grease Pumps are engineered for high-pressure lubrication applications where conventional lubrication methods are ineffective or impractical. Designed to ensure accurate and reliable delivery of lubricants, these pumps help improve equipment performance, reduce wear, and extend machine life.
Autolube Oil Pumps are specifically developed for the controlled dispensing of lubricating oil to critical machine components, ensuring continuous and consistent lubrication. Grease Pumps are designed for applications requiring precise metering of grease, delivering the exact quantity needed to lubrication points while minimizing wastage.
These systems are widely used in centralized lubrication systems for industrial machinery, machine tools, manufacturing equipment, and automated production lines where dependable lubrication is essential for smooth operation and reduced maintenance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the main difference between Mercury Pneumatics Autolube Pumps and Grease Dispensing Pumps?
- Autolube Pumps: These are designed for discharging precise, small quantities of oil under very high pressure. They are generally used for the continuous, programmed lubrication of machine slides, bearings, and compressed air equipment.
- Grease Dispensing Pumps: These are used for greasing applications where heavy-duty lubricants must be metered and injected into specific components like bearings, gear assemblies, and shafts.
Q: What are the primary industries and applications for Autolube pumps?
Mercury’s pumps are widely used in machine tool manufacturing, automotive workshops, automated assembly lines, packaging machinery, and general industrial automation setups where automated, reliable high-pressure lubrication is required to prevent downtime.
Q: Can the volume of the discharged lubricant be adjusted?
Yes. For the Pneumatic Grease Dispensing Pumps (such as the SPP series), the volume of grease to be dispensed is fully adjustable per cycle. Similarly, the Autolube Oil Pumps feature an adjustable frequency/quantity configuration to match changing machine speeds.
Q: Do these pumps require a continuous supply of compressed air to maintain lubrication?No. Unlike standard pneumatic lubricators that depend entirely on the continuous flow rate of compressed air, Mercury Autolube pumps provide guaranteed positive lubrication. The oil or grease is injected at high pressure independently of the airflow rate, ensuring restricted and high-resistance areas are adequately lubricated.
