locknlube cupler for a grease gun

[C4Ranch]

Liked my first one so much I ordered a second. This one came with a seal kit and said if it starts leaking after a couple of months to replace the seals....

A couple of months.. Makes me wonder about its longevity.

Anyone having any leaks?

Actually yes, mine started leaking after a couple months but for me that was a few dozen tubes of grease. I still plan on buying another. For me even a couple months usage is worth it.

You might contact to company and see if they'll send u a seal kit.. Looks simple enough and if they're all being shipped now with one they must be having a lot leak....

I didn't get no stinkin' seal kit.

I purchased mine a couple months ago and did not receive a seal kit either. Also makes me apprehensive about the reliability. I do not use mine often and hope it does not start to leak. This is a great device- if it holds up.

Used mine this weekend. It made greasing my tractor much easier. I didn't have to find the "magic" angle to get the grease to go into the fitting, no mess, no wasted grease...so far so good.

Still a :thumbsup::thumbsup: after using mine for some time now.

I've only used mine for a couple of months, probably front loader twice and backhoe 3 times. It started leaking today on every zerk I tried it on. I clean the zerks before greasing of course. I also tried cleaning the coupler head with solvent and compressed air - - still no good. Took the darn thing off and went back to a regular push-on head and that worked just fine to finish the grease job - no leaks.

I plan on calling them to see what they have to say and will do a follow on post here.

BTW, just a reminder, many regular grease coupling heads are adjustable, so you can loosen the head to make it easier to remove. On two zerks on my SSQC, the coupler is passed through a hole and then maybe goes another 6" to the zerk - i.e. not convenient to push it off to the side for uncoupling. I just wait a second for the grease pressure to drop, then pull it straight off with a bit of wiggling - no prob.

I to like the locknlube, it's for sure is a luxurious (if that word is even applicable to greasing!) way to do a messy job - quick, efficient, and nice while it lasted.

Lately mine is leaking a bit too. Be interested in what they say.
