The most basic lubrication method. Operator manually applies lubricant to the necessary points using a grease gun and hose assembly if needed. Manual Lubrication

Single Point Lubrication

Lubricant is automatically applied to a single point on the machinery or in the system. Most often used to lubricate bearings, these can be mounted directly or remotely.

Central Lubrication

Commonly found on heavy mobile equipment or large industrial machinery, this system allows multiple points to be lubricated at once using a centralized controller, reservoir, and pump.

Lubrication hose and fittings are used in a variety of industries including… • Agriculture • Transportation • Oil & Gas • Mobile Equipment • Construction • Mining

LUBRICATION NIPPLES

Grease fittings, also referred to as grease nipples, Zerk fit tings, or Alemite fittings are found on mechanical systems and machinery and serve as lubrication points for bearings or other mechanical components. With a history dating back to the 1920s, grease fittings still find widespread use today. Their unique design provides a secure connection between the nipple and grease gun coupler to allow for the precise delivery of grease while preventing against contamination. Grease fittings are available in a variety of shapes to fit any application.

Red Stick 2 finds widespread use in agriculture, construction, logging, trucking, and mining applications where demanding water washout or shock loading protection is needed and is an optimal chassis lubricant for on and off-road equipment. This premium duty, extreme pressure, lithium complex grease includes superior rust and corrosion protection while its distinctive red colour helps to quickly identify the grease and detect defective bearing seals. Red Stick 2 is recommended for industrial and anti-friction bearings including wheel bearings in equipment with disc brakes. It is not recommended for small anti-friction bearings operating over 5000 RPM. Note : Tacky additives used in the formulation of this grease make it hard to pump. A heavy follower plate or pneumatic pumping system may be required. Red Stick 2 is not recom mended for central lubrication systems. Big Blue MP2 is an optimal chassis lubricant for on and off-road equipment and is recommended for disc brakes, fifth wheels, and universal joints, as well as all types of ball bearings including plain, heavy loaded, journal, needle, and ball and roller. This premium, multi-purpose, lithium com plex grease has been formulated to withstand a wide range of operating temperatures (-40°C to 204°C) and includes superior rust and corrosion protection for moving parts under extreme pressure. Big Blue MP2 is an excellent choice for most sealed-for-life bearings and finds widespread use in agriculture, construction, logging, trucking, and mining applications where water resistance and shock load abilities are required. Black Bull Moly is a popular choice for rock crushers, oil field applications, offshore drilling, and marine deck equipment. This premium duty, extreme pressure, lithium complex grease has been formulated with molybdenum disulfide and other selected additives to provide added protection and water resistance. With added oxidation inhibitors that allow for high temperature applications over extended periods of time, superi or rust and corrosion protection of moving parts under extreme pressure, and water-resistant properties, Black Bull Moly is an excellent choice for most sealed-for-life bearings, as well as disc brake and chassis applications, fifth wheels, and universal joints. It is not recommended for small anti-friction bearings operating over 5000 RPM.

For best results, please adhere to the following recommendations: ■■ When calibrating gauges, choose a calibration pressure that is in the middle range of the gauge (between the ten o’clock and two o’clock position of the dial). ■■ Remember to prick a hole or cut the tip off of the vent plug to bring the internal pressure back to atmospheric pressure. ■■ Ensure all gauges are mounted upright to avoid fluid leakage.

SUPPORT CLAMPS

G6 Support Clamps are made from galvanized steel and are dipped in vinyl to prevent chafing. When compared to our more economical G6N Rubber Cushioned Support Clamps, our G6 Support Clamps provide a cleaner looking installation when supporting pipe, tubing, cables, or hose. They feature a 3 ⁄ 4 " wide heavy duty strap and 13 ⁄ 32 ” bolt hole.
