Lubrication Systems & Accessories
Lubrication Systems & Accessories to Fit All Your Needs
Lubrication systems & accessories cover a wide range of products under
grease fittings & accessories designed to simplify different types of lubrication systems and preserve equipment life, from bearings and gears in automotive and manufacturing to agricultural equipment, construction equipment, and more. When the standard grease fitting and grease gun setup is inconducive to the application need or may result in inadequate lubrication, sometimes other parts are needed to aid the process. These additional components help address common issues in grease fitting settings, like awkward spacing, dirt and debris, efficiency, and oil requirements.
Grease Accessories
Huyett's product line includes the following accessories for grease applications:
- Grease Fitting Adapters: These fasteners are used when the grease fitting does not fit the tapped hole, needs to be raised above the hole, or needs to be accessed at an angle. The adapter is installed in the hole and the zerk is screwed into it. Huyett's product line offers standard adapters for zerks that are too big, bushings for those that are too small, elbows to create an angled attachment point, and extensions to elongate the attachment point.
- Grease Fitting Caps: Caps help protect the zerk from dirt and debris, which can clog up the zerk head and potentially dispense dirt into the machine components. These parts are ideal for outdoor applications or those exposed to dust.
- Header Blocks: Header blocks are perfect for industrial applications that move large quantities of grease and require efficient greasing to multiline lubrication systems. The block connects these multiline systems to itself, which acts as a single-point lubricator, so you only need to access one centralized lubrication point to grease multiple lines for increased operational efficiency.
Oil Accessories
Huyett's product line includes the following accessories for oil lubrication:
- Oil Hole Covers: Equipped with a self-hinging cover to close on their own, oil hole covers provide simple coverage for oil holes. They do not hold hole; they serve to protect and provide access to oil holes. They feature a hex body for easy installation with a hex wrench and are available in 90° elbow styles for efficient access in awkward spacing.
- Oil Cups: Also equipped with a self-hinging cover, these components do feature a small reservoir to hold oil for consistent and continuous lubrication to the application while also offering hole protection. They also have a hex body for hex wrench installation.
- Oil Reservoirs: Reservoirs hold larger quantities of oil and are used as a central dispenser. Designed with a clear plastic bowl, these components make it easy to check oil levels and ensure the application is appropriately lubricated. Huyett offers reservoirs in varying capacities, from 1oz - 128oz.
- Oilers: Like oil hole covers, these components are used as oil fill points. The difference is that oilers have ball checks that self-close to reduce damage from dirt and debris.
Product Line Benefits
The parts in Huyett's lubrication & accessories product line offer the following benefits to relevant applications:
- Efficiency: All of these components help tackle common application issues and provide simple and time-saving solutions, providing overall cost savings.
- Lubrication Management: These products help make difficult or high-volume applications easier to manage with options for a single lubrication point, adaptable lubrication points, and coverage.
- Solutions for Awkward Spacing: Adapters and header blocks help provide easy access to hard-to-reach areas.
- Protection from Dirt and Debris: Caps, hole covers, cups, and oilers all provide coverage to the lubrication point to keep debris out, reducing the likelihood of blocked components or contaminated applications.
