5-Gallon Grease Pump Follower Plate
The Westward 29FX12 follower plate fits a standard 5 gal grease pail and keeps the pump inlet submerged while the level drops. It prevents air pockets that can stall dispensing in automotive and fleet maintenance tasks. The plate is classified under Traffic & Parking Lot hardware for shop and field use.
Sustained Dispensing Behaviour
During continuous pumping the follower maintains a seal against the pail wall so grease feeds evenly without cavitation. The design resists tilting as the follower descends, which avoids the intermittent flow that occurs when a loose plate wobbles. This steadiness supports long service intervals on heavy equipment.
Chemical Exposure Limits
The product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for a substance identified by the state as a cancer risk. A second Proposition 65 notice flags the same substance for potential birth defects or reproductive harm. No other regulatory restrictions on sale are reported for this item.

Questions about this item
How much power does the 29FX12 follower plate draw when the 5 gal pump runs all day?
The follower plate has no motor or electronics, so it draws no power at all.
Which grease pump model must I already own for this 29FX12 plate to fit my 5 gal drum?
It is made for standard 5‑gallon grease drums; the pump must accept a 5‑gal follower plate.
Will the 29FX12 follower plate work with an older 5 gal grease pump I already have?
If the older pump takes a standard 5‑gal follower plate, this plate will fit and function normally.
