Lubrication Fitting

Lubrication fittings are components used in lubrication systems to facilitate the application of lubricants to machinery or equipment. They are designed to connect hoses, pipes, or tubes to deliver lubricants to specific points in the system.

Lubrication fittings can come in various types, including:

1. Grease fittings: These fittings are used to deliver grease or lubricating oil to machinery or equipment. They typically have a threaded connection for easy installation and removal.

2. Oil cups: Oil cups are small reservoirs that hold lubricating oil. They are often used in manual lubrication systems and can be filled with oil manually or through a lubrication fitting.

3. Lubrication nipples: Also known as Zerk fittings or grease nipples, lubrication nipples are used to connect grease guns or other lubrication equipment to deliver grease to specific points in the system. They are commonly found in automotive and industrial applications.

4. Lubrication valves: Lubrication valves are used to control the flow of lubricants in a lubrication system. They can be manually operated or automated, allowing for precise control over the lubrication process.

These lubrication fittings are part of the supply class "Hose, Pipe, Tube, Lubrication, and Railing Fittings" in the supply group "Pipe, Tubing, Hose, and Fittings." They are essential components in lubrication systems, ensuring proper lubrication and maintenance of machinery and equipment.
