Product: Long Grease Nipple
Part Type: Aftermarket
Thread: 1/8"
Product Description:
The long grease nipple is a vital lubrication component for construction machinery. It allows precise delivery of grease into pins, bearings, bushings, and other moving joints, ensuring smooth and reliable operation. Regular lubrication protects components from wear, corrosion, and seizing, significantly extending machine lifespan and reducing maintenance costs.
Risk of Damage from a Faulty Grease Nipple
A damaged or blocked grease nipple—such as a broken thread, stuck ball, corrosion, or dirt-filled passage—prevents proper lubrication. This leads to "dry operation," which quickly causes severe wear or failure of pins, bushings, and other moving parts, resulting in high repair expenses.
Applications:
Regular inspection and replacement of worn grease nipples prevent mechanical failures and help maintain safe and efficient machine operation.
Important Fitting / Service Tips
1. Clean the Thread Thoroughly
Before screwing in a new grease nipple, thoroughly clean the old, dirty thread in the hole (e.g. with a wire brush) to ensure a tight connection.
2. Do Not Overtighten
The grease nipple should be tightened gently with a wrench until it is sealed. Overtightening can strip the thread, especially in aluminum components.
3. Always Clean Before Greasing
Before connecting the grease gun, always wipe the nipple tip with a clean cloth. Injecting dirt and sand into the joint is the most common service mistake.
