Grease pump is one of the practical tools from the group of industrial tools, which is often used for lubrication or greasing of various types of grease feeders, bearings, as well as bearings, etc., or it is said that grease The pump is a tool for injecting and spraying grease, which is used to extend the life of parts and devices and to improve their work. Grease pumps are among the tools that, like other tools, over time, They have progressed and have improved since the accuracy of the construction and its quality.
A brief history about the inventor of the grease pump and its origin:
The history of the origin of the grease pump and its inventor, as well as lubrication, goes back to about 1400 years before Christ and to the time of the ancient Egyptians, who mixed oil and lime and used it to lubricate the axles of the wheels of wooden chariots.
>With the beginning of the industrial revolution in 1872 in Europe, a type of lubricant called sodium grease was produced and sold to the market. In the 19th century, the production of industrial machinery reached its peak, and after that, the use of lubricants became very important to prevent the wear and tear of parts and the breakdown of machines and devices. And after that, the production of grease and grease pump became very important.
In Iran, different manufacturers started making various types of grease pumps.
Mikado Industrial Group has the honor of making industrial high pressure grease pumps its agenda since 1385 and now it is one of the best manufacturers of high pressure grease pumps in Iran and with experience and Sufficient knowledge in this field can say that the products of this company can compete with American and Italian grease pumps.
What is grease?
is one of the most popular lubricants of grease. Grease is usually used in places where oil cannot be used. In places where oil consumption causes leakage or dripping, grease is usually used for lubrication in industrial uses and facilities and agricultural and industrial machinery.
From the combination of hydrocarbon metal soap and oil, a solid or semi-solid substance called grease is produced, which has a higher viscosity than oil and is usually used to lubricate moving parts.
The characteristics of greases are different and the type of grease is selected according to the needs of the user. Greases are divided from grade zero (NLGI 0), which is the thinnest grade, to grade six (NLGI 6), which is the thickest grade of grease.
Advantages of lubrication:
1- Increasing the lifespan of parts
2- Reducing repair costs
3- Reducing energy consumption
Some advantages of using a grease pump:
1. Complete sealing of devices and reduction of lubrication leakage
2. Complete adhesion of grease to parts in conditions of high temperature and pressure
3. High durability of grease in the lubrication area
4. Reduction of the number of times of lubrication
5. Easier lubrication work
6. saving in the use of grease
7. possibility of lubrication in grease feeders that require high pressure
8. no mixing of grease with impurities
Important points in choosing a grease pump:
Before choosing a grease pump, you must carefully determine the desired application.
In the first step, you must determine the amount of grease required for each point of greasing and the number of points required for greasing and even the distance between them. did The sum of these items determines the working pressure required for working grease.
Things to consider when buying a grease pump:
A) Volume of grease pump
B) Size of grease pump
C) Place of application of grease pump
D) Required pressure for greasing
F) Grade of grease or grade of grease concentration

Types of grease pumps:
Pedal pump grease
Hand pump grease
Air pump grease
Bucket pump grease
Electric pump grease
Manual grease pumps:
A group of grease pumps that work by hand is called manual grease pump. These grease pumps are used in places where wind fluid or electricity is not available for use. Also, manual grease pumps sell more than other grease pumps due to their cheapness.
Types of manual grease pumps Production of Mahan Petropaish Development Company (Mikado grease pump):
1. Mikado manual lever pump grease
2. D-400 D-400 manual hydraulic grease pump 3. Supergun manual grease pump
