Yep, that's the thread. And you probably put me onto it last year, James.

Since then I've had occasion to return the favour a few times to other TBN Members. Ta, Mate.

well i dont care what others say... im sick and tired of messing with grease fittings over the years. I just had to mess with one of my loader zerk fittings getting stuck on my gun yesterday. messed with it for 10 minutes trying to get it to release.

$30 does seem a bit much, but im sick and tired of messing with a dirty grease gun. I went ahead and purchased one from Amazon just now.

Ill tell you how i like it when it arrives

Let us know what you think of it.. Heck I have spent more money than something is worth many times.. Two tickets to "Joe vs. the Volcano" comes to mind. Well then there was Frank Zappa's 1000 motels. Now that was 2 hours of my life I wish I had back.

well, im sick and tires of getting my hands and cloths covered in grease from messing with either a leaking fitting connection, or trying to get the gun to release. i hope this helps.

i dont mine paying $$ for something that works

If it doesnt work, amazon will be getting a return

Paid less than that for an entire US Made Lincoln grease gun.

Ok... I got the lock n lube grease coupler in yesterdays mail. Today was the big day. I had to pull all the chains and do maintenance and removal of all my snow equipment.

We have 10 days of 50-60F temps in the forecast, and the ground has thawed 100%, so no use in keeping any snow equipment on the tractor.

The new lock and lube end worked great. Absolutely no grease blowback from the fitting. Every fitting accepted grease. Very easy release. And best thing yet. after greasing about 30 fittings, not a spec of grease on my hands.

Thanks for the heads-up about this product. in 100% satisfied. This was the easiest and cleanest re-grease Ive ever done.

I kinda thinking of ordering one but i got to try adjusting the one i have. Been greasing equipment for almost 50 years not knowing you can adjust this tip. When i get something new i usually take it apart to see how it was built. Never thought of adjusting it. Thanks for the info . . . .John:confused3:
