Review on GOLDENROD (625) Pistol Pump Oiler πŸ”« - Convenient 10 oz. Capacity with Straight Spout by Roberto Manzer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality control issues but at the end of the day it's an oil can.

The solder point on the top of the can is sloppy on all (and I could look at 6 cans). They don't clean it well and the coating eventually peels off. I had to send it back for a replacement. The lid is not sealed so it is prone to leaking (all of them). I've put pipe thread tape on the top of mine (twice I've had to thicken it to slow the leak) and it seems fine, but keep in mind the oil will eventually make this worse. Both versions of this jar (I bought both a pump and an old school one for various uses) are being phased out and the quality seems low to me, especially for the price. But I kept them. I used sewing machine oil. With different oils they can behave differently.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Great price
