Alemite's New RAM Pump Designed to Handle Varying Pail Sizes



Fort Mill, S.C. - Alemite recently expanded its line of popular RAM pumps with the addition of the 9911-J portable grease pump, which is designed to work more effectively with plastic containers.

The 9911-J 50:1 pneumatic RAM pump offers a major improvement over its predecessor, the 9911-H1. The 9911-J features an adjustable bung adapter, allowing the downtube to be moved up or down to accommodate the varying heights of 35 lb. pails. It also features a flexible follower plate, ideal for use with tapered pails. The flexible follower helps prevent unused grease from being left at the bottom of the pail.

The increasing popularity of plastic and non-standard size pails make the 9911-J an ideal choice for grease dispensing. The pump also works with metal and straight-sided pails.

"Alemite developed the 9911-J in response to customer requests for a simple solution to accommodate the wide range of pail sizes in the marketplace," said Amy McGhee, product manager for Alemite. "We will continue to innovate our popular RAM pump line to better serve our customers' needs in 2007," added McGhee.

Included with the 9911-J are a cover, flexible follower plate, a convenient carrying handle and a control valve for accurate dispensing. This pump will deliver up to 4.5 lbs. of grease per minute and is ideal for use in fleet, automotive and industrial facilities.
