Fitting, Grease Nipple, 1/4”NPT

Description

¼” Nipple Fitting for Single Line (Centro-Matic) lubrication systems

A grease nipple or grease fitting is a metal fitting used in mechanical systems to feed lubricants, usually lubricating grease, into a bearing under moderate to high pressure using a grease gun which is responsible for keeping machines and all kinds of equipment in motion

Regardless of the application, the principle of single-line lubrication remains the same: a central pump station automatically delivers lubricant through a single supply line to the lubricant metering device. Each metering device serves only one lubrication point. You can adjust it to deliver the precise amount of grease or oil required. Systems can service one machine, different zones on one machine or even several separate machines.

Before you plan anything, you need to know what conditions the system will be used in. The number of lubrication points. The back pressures at the lubrication points. The temperature operation range. What type of lubricant? The feed pump’s drive energy, control and monitoring etc. You need to define them correctly. You also need to pay attention to information on bearing or lubrication points. The sum of all the quantities metered out by the system’s metering devices needs to be completed by safety margin and expansion and compressibility loss.

Advantages:

• Easy to understand, install and maintain
• Available in both preset and adjustable models
• Suitable for almost all lubricants
• Easy system expansion
• System continues to operate if one point becomes blocked Integrated system control and monitoringAble to pump long distances and within a wide temperature range
