Short run of "fire nozzle" grease gun adapters

Post by FUBAR » Thu Nov 02, 2017 5:18 pm

Hi All,

I paid way too much for a beat-up original Alemite "fire nozzle" type grease gun adapter, so I hought I'd get even by making a batch of repros on my lathe.
I'd like to know how much interest there is out there for these so that I can make up enough before sending out for plating. Price would be $20 for the nozzle, ball, spring and zerk fitting.

Below: repro on left, original on right

Beautifully engineered even down to the plating. Many thanks Bill, mine arrived today and here it is on my grease gun ...I've waited 49 years for it!
