Choosing a grease nipple
Match the thread first. It has to be identified exactly, because metric, UNF, BSP and NPT threads look similar but do not interchange, and a thread gauge or a known fitting helps. Then choose the angle: straight where there is clearance, and 45, 67.5 or 90 degrees where the grease gun needs to reach around an obstruction. Stainless steel suits wash-down, food and marine areas. A kit is the quickest way to cover a mixed fleet, and 25 and 100 packs suit regular use.
Always check the data sheet. Confirm the thread, length and material before ordering, and replace damaged nipples as soon as you can.

Grease nipple FAQs
What is a grease nipple?
A grease nipple (zerk fitting) is a small one-way valve that lets you pump grease into a bearing or joint with a grease gun, and stops it escaping afterwards.
How do I find the right grease nipple thread?
Check the thread on the old fitting or in the housing. Common sizes in our range are M6 and M8 metric, 1/4 inch UNF, and 1/8 inch BSP, BSPT and NPT. If you are unsure, call us.
What angles do grease nipples come in?
Straight, 45 degree, 67.5 degree and 90 degree. Angled nipples help where the grease gun cannot sit square to the fitting.
Do you have stainless steel grease nipples?
Yes. We list stainless nipples from Champion, Lubemate and Alemlube, including Champion SSCN nipples listed as 316/A4.
Can I buy a kit of grease nipples?
Yes. We list kits from 50 to 170 pieces in metric, imperial and stainless, plus a master kit that covers metric and imperial.
What do I use to protect a grease nipple?
We list a Champion grease nipple cap to keep the head clean between greasing.
