Anyone know a good brand? The typical pump kind. Most it seems are cheap chicom garbage, even the ones selling for more dollars. They seem to leak plus the zert fitting is a pain. Wish I had my old one. Thanks!


To be determined

I just bought a dewalt battery powered grease gun and put the lock n lube fitting on it. Holy [censored] man, that lock n lube by itself is a world of difference. Definitely put one on whatever gun you buy.

I had a Lincoln grease gun, I bought it at Granger years ago. It was a good one, that is still made. Is it as good today, I don't know, but Granger still sells the brand.

I have a Milwaukee cordless

I went thru at least half a dozen over an 18 month period each with increasing value. Then I bought the Milwaukee 18 volt

Alemite 500A, USA made, literally sold thousands back in my industrial supply sales days. Grainger does have them, should be easy to find online. I am not sure they come with a flex hose ,may have to buy that separate.

Thank you very much sir! Exactly what I needed. Have one on the way with the lock-n-lube fitting.

Thanks for the heads up on Lock N Lube. My vintage grease gun works great most of the time, but that fitting looks like the answer to some tough ones.

Also if you run OTR equipment a lot or find one you haven’t lubed before, get the Lock&Lube grease buster tool for those zerks that can’t be replaced easily. It’ll clear them out, grease it up and keep on trucking

I just ordered a lock and lube. Thanks for mentioning it, since I had no idea it existed. One of those things you didn’t know you needed till you saw it.
