SKF Lincoln unveils FlowMaster III lubrication pump

• SKF Lincoln introduces the FlowMaster III lubrication pump featuring a modular design to enhance uptime, efficiency, and safety.

• The pump includes innovations like an overflow-prevention module, ultrasonic level sensor, and improved grease-follower for stable operation.

• It supports multiple reservoir sizes and motor options, compatible with various lubrication system architectures.

• Targeted industries include mining, construction, industrial, agricultural, and oil and gas, backed by SKF's global service and support network.

Modular next-generation design boosts uptime, efficiency, and safety in demanding applications

SKF Lincoln announced today that it will debut the new FlowMaster III lubrication pump at CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026, taking place March 3–7 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Attendees can experience the new system firsthand at the SKF Lincoln booth N10362 in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center.

Engineered for maximum reliability in harsh environments, the FlowMaster III introduces a modern, modular design that helps operators reduce unplanned downtime, streamline maintenance, and improve overall equipment performance. Its rugged construction and advanced safety features make it a powerful solution for industries where continuous operation is essential.

The FlowMaster III incorporates direct-drive pumping technology and precision grease pathways to deliver high load capacity with minimal service requirements. A modular layout enables technicians to quickly access, service, or replace key components using standard tools, significantly reducing assembly and teardown time.

Key innovations include:

• Integrated overflow-prevention module that automatically stops lubricant flow when the reservoir reaches capacity, reducing spills and potential safety violations.

• Ultrasonic level-sensor module provides precise, real-time monitoring of lubricant levels and alerts operators when refilling is needed.

• Redesigned grease-follower module that improves stability and virtually eliminates grease bypass.

• Adapted Alemite RAM pump-tube module, combining filling and venting in a proven design trusted for more than a century.

Available in multiple configurations, the FlowMaster III supports reservoir sizes from 60 lb to 400 lb, with options for 24 VDC or hydraulic motors. The system is compatible with both progressive and single-line lubrication architectures, offering flexibility for a wide range of equipment platforms.

Blake Woods, Product Manager at SKF Lincoln, highlighted the customer-driven development behind the new pump:

“The FlowMaster III was developed to meet the real-world demands of industries where uptime is non-negotiable. By bringing together modular construction, long-lasting durability, and advanced safety features, we are providing operators and technicians with a pump that helps cut downtime, makes maintenance easier, and enhances workplace safety.”

Designed for mining, construction, industrial, agricultural, and oil and gas applications, the FlowMaster III is supported by SKF’s global distribution network, which provides turnkey system design, on-site installation and service, operator training, and a robust inventory of replacement parts.
