Grease Fitting Adapters
When the size or thread type of a fitting doesn't match an existing opening, use these adapters to make the connection.
Intermittent swivel adapters rotate to make it easier to access your fitting in tight spaces.
Zinc-plated steel adapters have mild corrosion resistance.

Lubrication Hose Fittings
Use these two-piece fittings in grease and lubrication lines. They screw directly onto plastic hose without the need for a separate adapter. To install, separate the two pieces of the fitting (the hose-end portion and the nipple portion). Screw the hose-end portion of the fitting onto the hose, then thread the nipple portion of the fitting into the hose-end portion. When assembled, the fitting compresses against the hose, forming a strong seal. Also known as reusable fittings, they can be unscrewed from the hose end and used on a new hose. Fittings are zinc-plated steel, which is strong and durable with fair corrosion resistance.
Fittings with intermittent swivel rotate 360° until tightened for easy installation.
Fittings with a 37° flared end are also known as JIC (Joint Industrial Council) fittings.
NPTF (Dryseal) threads are compatible with NPT threads.
