Sealey AK447 Needle Nose Grease Dispenser

Product Information

Material - Grease nipples are generally available in steel, brass, carbon steel, stainless steel, and Monel®. The material will affect the strength and overall longevity of your grease fitting.

Don’t mix old and new greases - use only the correct type of lubricant for the job and parts you’re working with If you are going to use a CNC machine for many years then you should be using the grease gun needle for smoother operations. Greasing the CNC parts lessens down the resistance faced by parts in operation.Grease nipples are designed to prevent unnecessary mess or spillage when applying grease. They are commonplace amongst a range of applications, including:

Output - The amount of grease delivered with each pump varies in different guns. Understanding the amount needed for each machine can help to ensure that you don't over or under grease machinery and cause damage to seals and motors.Flush fittings - Flush fittings boast a low-profile design that is useful in situations where clearance between moving parts is a necessity. They are typically used in low-clearance mechanisms such as pulleys and shafts. Pneumatic grease guns - Air-powered models that attach to a compressor via a length of hose, offering greater power for industrial or larger commercial applications If you're looking for personalised recommendations on the right type of grease fitting for your job, ask our experts for specialised advice. Fundamentally, a grease gun is a hand-held pumping device that delivers lubricating grease into rotary bearings and other mechanical parts that are located deep inside machinery. They do an essential job in ensuring the smooth operation of moving parts and maintaining the optimum health of a machine.

Grease guns are typified by their operation, with each offering its own benefits. The best choice depends solely on the type of application required and the preference of the user. Operation - grease guns are either manually, battery or pneumatically operated. Manual and battery operations offer the convenience of a cordless gun, which allows for user flexibility, while pneumatic grease guns are high powered and ideal for heavy-duty working environments. If you’re using a different grease than before, you’ll need to pump a small quantity of the new lubricant out through the nozzle of the grease gun until none of the old grease is left insideHydraulic nipples - Hydraulic nipples have a flat face design and can be used with hydraulic grease equipment. Hand pump grease guns - This type features a pressurised pump handle or piston as part of the tool, which is primed before use to create a build-up of pressure, and subsequently released via a trigger mechanism to force the lubricant through the fitting Grease acts as a lubricant and should be part of the CNC cleaning routine every month. Doing so will only increase the life of CNC parts.
