LUMAX LX-1416 Silver 18G 2 1/2" Long Stainless Steel Grease Injector Needle with Cap, Ideal for Lubricating in Very Tight Places Like Sealed Bearings and Universal Joints

I have a 2001 Honda Accord that's in remarkable shape given its age. It developed a bad squeak in the front end. It was from the driver's side ball joints. The ball joints were tight but noisy and had "boots" on them. I was able to inject grease into the boots using this needle and the noise is totally gone. Easy to do, the most difficult part was jacking the care and removing the wheel for better access. A little time and a little money avoided a very costly repair.

This needle is used for getting grease in very tight places, and needle bearings it works really well also and many other places I use Lucas “Red N Tacky” and all my grease guns I also use their aerosol can that shoots grease in the place behind the gear boxes and the solvent dissipates instantly leaving the synthetic grease to do its job and when I found this needle, the needle gives me more direct application and to really tight places you really need one of these if you do anything with gearboxes even small ones this makes life so much easier

good

Works great to lubricate the front driveshaft on my 2012 Dodge Ram 2500, 6.7L Cummins HO. The diameter of this needle works well on my application and fits in the fitting perfectly. Extremely sharp, so be careful! Easy to remove from the grease gun. This is a benefit and curse. Reduced from 5-stars to 4-stars based on this because I found the needle disconnecting from the grease gun as I tried to maneuver it into position.

THIS NEEDLE GREASER WORKED REALLY WELL. I USED IT TO GET INBETWEEN GEARS INSIDE OF MY POWER TOOLS IE. ELECTRIC GRINDERS AND HAMMER DRILLS. THE NEEDLE IS STURDY AND DOES NOT EASILY BEND . BE SURE TO LOOSEN THE TIP OF YOUR GREASE GUN, INSERT THE GREASE FITTING INTO THE GUN, THEN RETIGHTEN THE TIP.

It is a needle for squirting grease into small things that don't have fittings. It is not made of unbendium, so if you are having to try to get it into something, do not be surprised if you bend it, a little or a lot. A lot means it won't flow grease, wither un bend it or buy a new one & try again a different way to avoid bending it. They are cheap enough. Also, you may need to hold it onto the end of your grease gun as any movement sideways, just like with a grease fitting, will pop it off the end of the gun & leave a greasy sploodge on whatever you are trying to inject. It happens. deal with it & try again. I have never been given anything for free from Amazon as apparently I am neither a prodigious enough reviewer, purchaser or just not funny enough to be worth anyone wanting to give me anything, so my reviews are as honest as you get....

Good tool to have

After going through at least a dozen other grease injectors from various brands this one is by far the best needle injector I have found. This is a thick needle but not so thick to restrict grease flow and still able to get into tight areas. I have used it with both pneumatic and pistol grip style guns. Plan to order more to have around the shop and also place in the tractors.

Muy buena y util para llegar directo a los balines de los rodamientos, cuando estan en una posición y distancia difíciles, simple y sencilla de usar y comprada con un buen descuento, sin duda comprare otra si la veo en descuento nuevamente.

Good quality but highy priced

Funktioniert gut

This is a must have if you have a grease gun. Brilliant for greasing ball joints etc through the rubber boots.

Grease nipples on my car were broken but i was able to grease my front end anyway using this needle. Goodbye squeaks
