When the fittings were high-pressure grease tested at 8,000psi (which is the pressure that Kingfisher test at) both springs collapsed. This is a critical failure. Proper lubrication through grease fittings also helps in preventing corrosion, rust, and contamination of moving components. This is especially important in harsh environments or applications exposed to moisture and debris. By regularly applying grease through these fittings, machinery owners can significantly reduce the risk of premature component failure and costly repairs. Discover what can happen when you use a faulty or poor quality grease fitting here. Make sure all threading, couplers and connections are closed tightly but don’t over-tighten as this can cause failures in pressure and flow Battery-powered grease guns - The core mechanism of battery-powered grease guns is similar to the above models, except that the on-board batteries provide the power to create the required pressure build-up (rather than the user having to do so manually or via external means)

Manufactured according to DIN 3405, European standards or with reference to International standards, made of steel, case hardened, zinc plated and passivated. Various types for special purposes also available in brass or stainless steel V2A. Straight version (180°), according to DIN 3405 with cylindrical thread. Angled version is 45°, according to DIN 3405 or 90°, according to DIN 3405 with conical/tapered thread. D1 StraightDepending on where you live, the time it may take for your exchanged product to reach you, may vary. Any item not in its original condition, is damaged or missing parts for reasons not due to our error This special tool helps save time and grants a simple way to distinguish one grease fitting thread from another. It includes the standard metric sizes such as the UNF, the American standard, the British standard, and many more. Without a grease fitting gauge After using your grease gun, always wipe down your fitting to avoid contamination of dirt and moisture.

As well as having a grip and a nozzle or ‘barrel’ of sorts, grease guns are typically operated via a lever that may somewhat resemble a large ‘trigger’. In certain newer or more automated models, this lever may be significantly smaller than in more traditional manually operated formats, giving rise to terms like ‘pistol style’ grease pumps.There are several common formats for grease fittings, with the most common being a standard-sized convex shape that fits snugly against the typical concave end of a grease gun nozzle. This combination allows the grease gun to be attached easily from various angles and still make an air-tight connection, meaning fewer instances of lubricant oozing out around the outsides of the grease nipple rather than being forced into the voids as intended. Grease fittings are attached to a grease gun to administer a pressure-resistant connection. Also, they have a channel behind the opening that runs straight to the area where you need to grease.
