Manual grease gun and its different types
Lubricating machines, vehicles or equipment is dirty work, but important for the effectiveness and longevity of mechanical parts. A hand-operated grease gun is necessary to do this properly without spillage. Designed to process lubricants, a grease gun is used to apply grease neatly in the right place. With a hand-operated high pressure grease gun you can apply the grease precisely where it needs to be, while simultaneously retaining control at all times.
There are two types of hand-operated grease guns:
With a lever: an manualautomatic grease gun with a lever is the most common type of grease gun and can supply around 1.28 grams of grease per pump. The grease is forced through an aperture and applied onto the machine parts
With a pistol grip: the manual grease gun with a pistol grip is a variation of the lever-type, except that it operates with a one-hand pumping method. This type of grease gun provides approximately 0.86 grams per pump
Is a lever or pistol grip better?
Models with a lever typically deliver more grease per stroke, making them ideal for tasks that require substantial lubrication. However, they require two hands and more force to operate. Pistol grip grease guns offer the convenience of one-handed application, but deliver less grease per stroke. This is why the choice depends on the maintenance at hand plus the user’s preference in terms of efficiency and ease of use.
Do I need a manual or pneumatic grease gun?
When deciding between a manual and a pneumatic grease gun, consider the specific needs and the working environment. Manual grease guns are easy to operate and give you precise control over grease application, hence them being suitable for small to moderate lubrication tasks without the need of a power source. On top of that, the portability makes these lubrication systems ideal for use in remote or small spaces.
Pneumatic grease guns are powered by compressed air and are more suited for frequent lubrication tasks on a large scale. Offering a consistent application rate, they can reduce fatigue during projects that require fast and extensive greasing. When choosing between a manual or pneumatic solution, we recommend you to consider multiple factors in order to make your work more efficient.
