Picture © Ozwrenches This pump has no markings. However, a similar one was seen in the militery museum in Darwin (June 2016). It was in a cabinet of tools for an Army Blitz truck, so let us classify it as such until other info is received. (Info wanted) We have another one which came mounted on a solid piece of plywood, no doubt to provide support on soft or uneven ground. |

Picture © Ozwrenches PCL Royal. An attractive brass cylinder pump. Pneumatic Components Limited (PCL) Founded in 1938, when the first pressure gauges were designed and manufactured in Sheffield, PCL started somewhat later than many of the other major pump makers. The company was founded, apparently, as a result of a squabble between the Turner brothers (of the famous Kismet Company in Sheffield). One of the brothers broke away and founded the rival PCL enterprise. ref: http://www.vintagepumps.co.uk/page2.html |

Picture © Ozwrenches Marked: "W Turner & Bro, RENRUT BALLOON PUMP EYRE LANE SHEFFIELD" William Turner and Bros., Ltd., 44, Eyre Lane, A leading feature of the pump is the use of both low and high-pressure cylinders operated by the one plunger, an arrangement which is stated to deliver twice the usual volume of air at each stroke and so to allow tyres to be inflated in a minimum of time. In operation the large cylinder first becomes filled with air from the atmosphere, this, before passing out of the pump, being compressed into the small or high-pressure cylinder, from which it is forced into the tyre. From an article dated 29th March 1927. Offers considered |
