Don't expect much from this tip

The rubber tip came loose during use and grease leaked out at the back where it meets the metal body. Didn't they know that grease guns produce up to 3500 psi, very poor design

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Some flaws

Works well! in grease guns

Works fine but I think the size of the hole causes a lot of back pressure as my old gun grease is hard to pump. I think I could enlarge the hole a bit more and see how it works.

Pros
  • Lots of good vibes
Cons
  • Some nuances

Not Very Good - Fuel Transfer and Lubrication

It's almost impossible to apply lube to the hole to be lubricated without it leaking around the rubber cap instead. Even if you press hard and hold the tip perpendicular to the hole.

Pros
  • Hands Free Operation
Cons
  • Uncertain

Tip pops out - Garage & Shop

At very low pressure, the tip pops out and squirts grease. Once connected to a safety wire, it would expand like a balloon when more pressure was applied. Great concept, just need better advice.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • I'm silent

But works fine. best in workshop and shop

I bought this to lubricate the swingarm bearings on my BMW R100RT which does not have Zerk connectors. The rubber cap on the fitting sits very loosely on the metal body. I had to glue the rubber tip to the metal body with E6000 glue. Otherwise, the grease will simply splash between the metal case and the rubber cover. Now it works fine.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Has defects
