Grease Gun with Short Nozzle

The Dualco Grease Gun with Short Nozzle is a high-quality and reliable tool for precision greasing tasks. Made in the USA, this grease gun is well-Constructed and performs well. One customer compared this grease gun to other models and found it to be the same as the Astro and Park Tool models. They mentioned that these models are essentially the same but without the paint. The gun is designed to be compact and features a 1/4"X20 thread, making it compatible with various nozzles. While it may not be suitable for hydraulic nozzles or Zerk size fittings, it effectively works with the included short nozzle. The Dualco Grease Gun operates on both the vacuum and spring models. Pressure is applied through the bottom with a screwdriver, allowing the grease to be distributed to the head. The head then vacuums the grease in via positive displacement. Some customers mentioned that adding a spring at the bottom is optional and not necessary. The container can be hand-filled according to the instructions provided with the tool. There is no mention of using smaller mini grease tubes, so it is recommended to hand-fill the container for best results. It is worth noting that the product image may not be entirely accurate, as some customers received the gun with a short nozzle instead of the long nozzle shown. However, this did not seem to affect the overall performance of the grease gun. In terms of performance, the Dualco Grease Gun received positive reviews. Some customers mentioned using it for chainsaws, clutch drum bearings, and bar tip sprockets. They praised its quality and durability, stating that it is a better tool compared to other brands such as the Oregon Premium Grease Gun. However, there were a few negative experiences mentioned by customers. One user reported that the grease bypassed the follower and filled the tube behind it when the unit was filled. Another customer felt that the gun should have a rubber bushing to prevent the flow of grease around the piece being pushed on. Overall, the Dualco Grease Gun with Short Nozzle is a reliable and high-quality tool that is suitable for precision greasing tasks. Made in the USA, it offers good value for the price.
