Precise Grease & Lubricant Placement
Applying too much lubricant—or putting it in the wrong place—can create problems when working with small mechanical assemblies and precision equipment.
The narrow 18-gauge shaft provides much greater placement control than applying grease directly from a larger container. This makes it useful for jobs where lubricant needs to be directed to a particular point rather than spread over a broad area.
2-Inch Shaft for Extended Reach
The 2-inch shaft provides additional reach when the lubrication point is recessed or surrounded by other components.
This extended length can be especially convenient for servicing mechanisms where direct access with a conventional grease applicator is difficult.
Blunt Tip for Dispensing Applications
Unlike a sharpened hypodermic needle, this needle has a blunt tip designed for dispensing applications.
It is intended for accurately delivering grease or other suitable materials rather than for piercing or injection.
Luer-Lock Connection
The chrome-plated Luer-lock hub allows the needle to attach securely to compatible Luer-lock syringes and dispensing equipment.
The locking connection helps keep the needle firmly attached while material is being dispensed, providing a practical setup for controlled bench-top lubrication and dispensing work.
Stainless-Steel Precision Shaft
The shaft is manufactured from high-quality stainless-steel tubing for durability and precise dispensing.
Combined with the chrome-plated hub, the stainless-steel shaft makes this a useful accessory for repair benches, workshops, maintenance work, and other applications requiring accurate lubricant placement.
