An improved lubrication arrangement for a piston member arranged to be reciprocatingly movable in a cylinder element of an injection pump for fuel or the like pressure medium, wherein lubricant is supplied under pressure into a lubrication groove arranged in the cylinder element and encircling the piston member. The flow-through of the lubricant is improved by providing the cylinder element with at least one channel extending in the longitudinal direction of the cylinder element, which channel is connected with the lubrication groove for leading lubricant continuously into another position on the mantle surface of the piston member at a distance from the lubrication groove further to be recovered and for possible recirculation.
