Review on DOWELL Metal Oil Can – Pistol Pump Oiler for Lubrication, 16oz 500ml Bottle with Straight Spout, Black (HY050201) by Jim Dahl

Revainrating 4 out of 5

From what I remember Oil Lube Systems

From what I can remember this is a good old lubricator. It has some advantages over using the 3 in 1 oil I poured in from the original plastic container. It's easier to control the flow from the spout, you don't have to turn it upside down, and the long spouts help direct it to places you normally can't reach. The only issue I give is that the pump inlet doesn't reach the bottom of the can. Looks like at least an ounce is left untouched. And the all-metal pump inlet goes right into the center of the bottom of the can, so you can't get more out by tipping the can. The plastic tube inlet lies flat or in the corner of the tank bottom and lets more oil through when it is low. However, this is a good version to use.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Discontinued model
