Industrial Oil Pumps: High-Performance Solutions for Demanding Applications
Industrial processes rely on precision, power, and reliability—and when it comes to moving oil under pressure, nothing gets the job done quite like a high-quality industrial oil pump. Whether you’re running a mining operation, maintaining heavy equipment, or working in manufacturing, the right oil pump is critical for lubrication, circulation, and hydraulic power transmission.
At MultiTorque, we supply and service a wide range of industrial oil pumps designed to perform under pressure—literally. In this guide, we’ll break down how these pumps work, their types, key benefits, and how to select the perfect unit for your operation.
What Is an Industrial Oil Pump?
An industrial oil pump is a mechanical device used to move oil or other viscous fluids in a controlled, consistent flow. These pumps are built to withstand high temperatures, aggressive environments, and thick fluid viscosities without sacrificing efficiency.
They are commonly found in:
-
Hydraulic systems
-
Gearboxes and compressors
-
Oil transfer stations
-
Automated machinery
-
Lube skids in mining and transport
Common Types of Industrial Oil Pumps
Here’s a breakdown of the most used pump types in industrial settings:
| Pump Type | Description | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Gear Pumps | Positive displacement design using interlocking gears | High-pressure lube and transfer |
| Vane Pumps | Uses rotating vanes for smooth, pulseless flow | Medium-pressure circulation |
| Piston Pumps | Delivers oil at extremely high pressure using reciprocating action | Hydraulic power systems |
| Diaphragm Pumps | Air-operated for explosion-safe areas | Oil recovery and waste handling |
Top Benefits of Using an Industrial Oil Pump
✅ Optimised Equipment Performance – Proper oil circulation prevents overheating, reduces wear, and extends machinery life.
✅ High-Pressure Capability – Whether it’s 10 bar or 300 bar, industrial pumps handle extreme workloads without flinching.
✅ Precision Flow Control – Positive displacement pumps ensure accurate dosing and flow rates, critical for lubrication systems.
✅ Durability in Harsh Environments – MultiTorque supplies pumps made from cast iron, stainless steel, and high-grade polymers—built to resist thermal, chemical, and mechanical stress.
Applications Across Australian Industries
Industrial oil pumps are used across a variety of sectors including:
-
Mining – For lube skids, dragline maintenance, and hydraulic tools
-
Agriculture – Tractor and harvester lubrication systems
-
Transport – Fleet maintenance and service workshops
-
Manufacturing – CNC and metalworking oil circulation
-
Oil & Gas – Crude oil transfer, filtration systems, and drilling rigs
How to Choose the Right Industrial Oil Pump
When selecting a pump, consider the following:
-
Viscosity of the Oil – Heavier oils require slower pumping speeds and larger clearances.
-
Temperature Range – Pumps must tolerate operating temps that can exceed 120°C in some systems.
-
Flow Rate Requirements – Measured in litres per minute (LPM), your system’s flow rate dictates pump size.
-
Discharge Pressure – High-pressure applications need piston or gear pumps with reinforced seals and casings.
-
Power Source – Choose between electric, air-operated, or engine-driven pumps based on your site setup.
