Grease Cups

Fill the cover with grease and then screw it onto the bowl. As you tighten the cover, grease is squeezed out of the bowl and into your joint, bearing, or equipment.

Grease Dispensers

Spring pressure ensures a constant flow of grease. Dispensers come with three different adjustment springs to fit your dispensing requirements. They have a standard grease fitting for filling. Flow rate depends on temperature.

Plastic dispensers are an economical choice when there's minimal vibration. Aluminum dispensers are able to withstand vibration, shock, and impact. Nickel-chrome-plated aluminum dispensers offer better corrosion resistance than plastic and aluminum dispensers.

Remote-mount spring (sold separately) provides extra pressure when using thick grease at a distance.

Adjustable-Flow Grease Dispensers

Turn the metering pin to adjust flow rate. As grease is dispensed, the stem at the top of the cup descends to indicate when the cup needs refilling. Dispensers have a standard grease fitting for filling. Flow rate depends on temperature.

Battery-Powered Grease-Dispensing Pumps

Use the keypad to select from six dispensing durations: 15 days, 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months.

Battery and grease packs (sold separately) must be installed and replaced at the same time for proper operation.

Connect a manifold (sold separately) to lubricate multiple points. Manifolds with mounting kit include connectors, adapters, tubing, and mounting hardware—all the components required to set up lubrication to multiple points.

Air-Powered Container-Mount Grease Dispensers

Dispense from your drum or pail of grease using compressed air. Dispensers include a follower plate that moves down the inside of the container as the grease level drops to compress the grease and prevent vapor pockets. Containers not included.

Dispensers deliver grease at the same pressure as your existing grease system, up to the max. grease outlet pressure. Dispensers with a booster gun allow you to increase the pressure to the value listed for max. grease outlet pressure with booster.

Styles A-D have a Z-swivel that connects the outlet hose to the gun and prevents the hose from kinking.

Dual-Output Container-Mount Grease Dispensers

C (Container Not Included)

Switch between high-pressure and low-pressure settings. Use high pressure to dispense thicker grease or to force grease through clogged fittings. Use low pressure for high-volume dispensing. Dispensers include a follower plate that moves down the inside of the container as the grease level drops to compress the grease and prevent vapor pockets.

Styles A and C do not include a container. Use them with your pail of grease.
