A grease nipple (or fitting) is a crucial service point that allows grease to be injected into pins, bearings, and other moving joints. If your grease nipple is broken off, corroded, its ball is stuck, or it's clogged with dirt, proper lubrication becomes impossible. Ignoring the problem leads to "dry" operation, which in a short time results in the seizure and destruction of pins and bushings, generating very high repair costs.

A functional grease nipple is the only way to effectively lubricate the key joints in your machine.
This is the cheapest part that protects pins and bushings worth thousands from seizure and destruction.
Replacing a damaged grease nipple takes a few moments and is one of the basic service activities.
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.
The grease nipple should be tightened gently with a wrench until it is sealed. Overtightening can strip the thread, especially in aluminum components.
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.
Answer: These are two different, non-interchangeable thread standards. The imperial BSP thread is commonly used in British machines like JCB. This fitting has a 1/4" BSP thread.
Question: What if grease won't go in despite a new nipple?Answer: The grease channel in the pin is likely clogged with old, hardened grease or dirt. In that case, the pin must be removed and thoroughly cleaned.
Question: Are straight and angled grease nipples interchangeable?Answer: As long as there is enough space, they can be used interchangeably. Angled nipples are used in hard-to-reach places where connecting a grease gun to a straight nipple would be impossible.
