Grease Fitting Tools

Grease Fitting Tools for Simple Zerk Installation

Grease fitting tools assist with installing, extracting, and maintaining grease zerk fittings and connections. They are a must-have for any toolbox for quick spot repairs and maintenance of zerks and adapters. Their compatibility with the application depends on whether the zerks are threaded or drive type-grease fittings, or if the fitting needs unblocked.

• Grease fitting multi-tools are designed to install threaded fittings and replace broken ones. Equipped with three functionalities, these components attach to both straight and angled grease zerks for threaded installation, clean and re-tap holes, and remove broken grease fittings.

• Drive tools install drive-type zerks and therefore do not need to re-tap or clean holes. The tool simply fits over the zerk and is used as a barrier between the mallet (or light hammer) and the zerk so the mallet does not strike and damage the top of the fitting.

This Huyett product line also carries unblockers to unclog fittings. These tools inject light viscosity oil into the fitting to loosen internal components or debris and restore the flow of grease.

These components are a part of Huyett's larger product line of grease fitting tools & tool parts, which includes a number of different components to aid lubrication applications. Other products include:

• Grease Fitting Hoses: Nylon, rubber, or vinyl flexible connections between a grease gun and a grease coupler to help reach into tight or awkward spaces.

• Grease Gun Couplers: Attachments that connect to hose or pipe extensions and lock onto the grease zerk and provide a secure connection to transport the lubrication.

• Grease Guns: Components that are loaded with grease to deliver grease to a zerk; available in multiple styles for both small and high-volume use.

• Grease Fitting Tool Parts & Accessories: A category with a variety of couplers, pipe extensions, and other accessories.

• Oil Cans: Container for light oils and lower-viscosity lubricants used in general maintenance, like bicycle chains and door hinges.

Product Benefits

Grease fitting tools provide several advantages, including:

• Simple Installation: Multi-tools and drive tools both provide easy installation with simple hand tools.

• Options for Cleaning: Multi-tools and unblockers offer ways to clean the fitting and the fill point to ease installation and maintain the zerk.

• Cost Effective: These reusable components provide long-term solutions for repetitive lubrication tasks, making them essential to have on hand in industrial lubrication environments like agriculture, machines and equipment, manufacturing, and more.
