The best features about this item are that you don’t have to work that big spring, and the tip will release under pressure - it’ll come right off.Īdded to the Lube-Shuttle, the two products work together to really take the mess out of greasing. I usually have to push and twirl just a little bit to get the lock, but once on, it won’t come off or let grease go everywhere. To get it to fully seat, you just push the tip from its base and the lever comes up. You feel it seat on there, but it’s not locked yet. To use this one, you push the lever in to get it on the grease zerk. But the effort on this product is not in getting the big spring released. It goes on the grease gun just like the standard tips do. The safeLOCK works a little bit differently. But The safeLOCK is Faster and Easier to Attach That’s the one most of you are used to, and that’s how it works. Now it’s locked on, won’t come off, and you won’t have grease coming out everywhere. The lever pulls the jaws out, and then to put it on the grease zerk you work the lever again, then release. You have to push a lever that releases the heavy spring to expose the jaws. Once the standard tip is screwed onto the grease gun, you need to get it on the grease zerk. It goes on and fits perfectly, but is designed differently than the standard tips. The Lube-Shuttle tip, called the safeLOCK, does the exact same thing. In my experience using the combination, I’ve had no leaks. But even though the standard tips have NPT or national pipe threads, they go right on the Lube-Shuttle. The Lube-Shuttle and its accessories have metric threads. Now, the tips you are accustomed to using have slightly different threads than the safeLOCK tips. When I recently introduced the Lube-Shuttle Grease Gun, I got a lot of questions about the special end tips that lock on the zerk. Introducing the safeLOCK Grease QUICK ATTACH
