Enerpac LX-101 1 Gallon Hydraulic Oil for Hand Pumps

The Enerpac LX-101 hydraulic oil comes in a one-gallon package and is suitable for use with Enerpac hydraulic hand pumps (sold separately). This ISO grade 15 oil performs well at low temperatures, with viscosity below 1635 Saybolt Universal Seconds (SUS) at 0 degrees Fahrenheit, and contains additives to help prevent rust and buildup of sludge. It is not suitable for use in power pumps.

Hydraulic pumps lift, bolt, or apply pressure to objects by pressurizing and moving hydraulic fluid. A hydraulic pump consists of a base, a reservoir that holds hydraulic fluid, and an operating mechanism, such as a handle or foot pedal, an electric motor, compressed air, or a gasoline engine. When the operating mechanism is activated, pressurized hydraulic fluid from the reservoir is delivered through an attached hose to a hydraulic cylinder. The pressurized hydraulic fluid in the cylinder lifts the cylinder’s piston, which in turn lifts the load. Hydraulic hand pumps are usually made of steel, or aluminum and nylon, and can be single-speed or two-speed. They are used in a wide range of applications, such as construction, manufacturing, and maintenance and repair applications in both industrial and home settings.

Enerpac manufactures industrial hydraulic equipment for lifting, workholding, and other applications, and provides integrated lifting solutions for bridge construction, mining, shipbuilding, and other industries. The company, founded in 1959, is headquartered in Menominee Falls, WI.
