Another grease thread, kinda.

I have two different brands of locking grease gun couplers. Neither will fit in the end of the pins on my loader or backhoe. Can anybody with the LocknLube brand confirm or not that they are narrow enough to fit?

In reference to the grease guns that don't "fit". There is a knurled area near the end of the grease tip. You can typically unscrew (turn counter clock wise) to enlarge the opening, allowing the fitting to fit over virtually any size fitting. Also, if get the gun on a grease fitting and then can't get it to release you can make a similar adjustment to allow it some lack to come off.

I have a LocknLube coupler and it does fit into the recessed pins and locks onto the zerk.

I'm aware of that feature, thanks. But that wasn't my question.

Thanks man. I'll order the L&L brand.

Lock-n-Lube fits every grease fitting on my L48 TLB.......your L45's slightly bigger brother.
