Oil cups have small reservoirs that provide slow, constant lubrication to machinery. Featuring a self-closing lid to prevent contamination and a hex body for easy installation, these components ensure consistent oil delivery. The brazed body and shank offer a secure, leak-proof connection, making them ideal for a variety of industrial applications, like those where temperatures and/or high speeds are not conducive to greasing. Available in different sizes, Huyett’s oil cups provide both protection and efficient oil distribution, with a durable zinc-plated steel construction for corrosion resistance. 

Oil Cups Hold Oil and Protect Fill Points

Oil cups are small reservoirs that hold small amounts of oil for machinery and allow for slow, constant lubrication of moving parts. Oil cups are simple, yet reliable components that can be used in a variety of applications. Equipped with a self-closing lid to reduce contamination in oil holes and a hex body for easy installation, these components combine the protection of an oil hole cover with the ability to slowly dispense oil to its application. The body and shank are brazed together for a secure, leak-proof connection.
Hole covers are a part of Huyett's lubrication systems & accessories product line, which offers accessories that aid grease and oil lubrication applications by offering extra protection, efficiency, or adaptability. Other products include:
  • Grease Fitting Adapters: Attach to the grease point and adapt the connection when it needs elongated, angled, or fit to a different hole size.
  • Grease Fitting Caps: Plastic caps that attach to the fitting to protect the zerk from dirt and debris.
  • Header Blocks: Allows for multiple grease points to connect back to a single lubrication system through hoses.
