Grease Gun Ends

Can anyone recommend somewhere to buy decent grease gun ends?
The Bazzoni ones that come on the speedy grease guns are very good, but have started to leak. Ordered some replacements but they sent me those G connectors, they last a week and don’t fit on half the nipples.

Just want some really good quality normal ones.

Don't know where they source them but our claas dealer sells really good grease gun ends.

It rages me when it comes out the side and they don't last.

If the jaws are still good try cleaning inside with carb clean and pick the rubber out. Sometimes a bit of grit makes them leak.

I've tried near them all and yet to find something decent. The G coupler is just too bulky for a lot of things, then you end up with that abortion of a 90deg fitting with an even crapper coupler on it. :banghead: :banghead:

Anybody know where to get a pipe to suit a Milwaukee battery gun that doesn't cost a fortune?, they are looking for the thick end of £40 which is bloody nuts. :mad::mad:
I made adaptors to suit the ordinary thread and tried a normal short one on but that only lasted till the first tough nipple and the pipe blew.

Alemite 3 jaw coupler from Allube, good and cheap all i have used for years and they are slimmer than any others i used too.

Just buy a pack of 10 at a time to make most of postage and lasts me ages

I find the rubber seal in the alemite couplers is very soft and doesn't last very long unless your nipples are in perfect condition.

I find the MATO brand ones to be a good balance between cost and life expectancy.

Don't buy one of the below, they are sh1t as they don't fit old grease nipples and get bunged up so the 'lock" doesn't work.

Doost D series coupler. (the long version)

the one yer all looking for but couldn't be bothered buying....

ive mentioned it many's a time in threads here but seems unless its looking at you on the shelf its far too much of a stretch to order one online and so its easier just to bitch about the ones that fail..

Had G couplers ends 7 yrs now. 2 guns . not touched since fitted, no problems at all. and not found any nipples that they won't fit. just my opinion.
when you start to grease mowers and shafts you'd find plenty of nipples they wont grease tbh, the short or long version that is. they will grease 85% of nipples but just not all and that's no good imo, they were great at the start when there wasn't much else, there's a lot more in that market now, unfortunately most of them aren't much better either, too short, too fat, too fancy for the cheap nipple and so on.

ive tried a right few std heads, 6-10 different brands maybe over the quest to find the one back then, then the likes of the g couplers hit the market and i tried 4 or 5 brands there but with little success in finding an all rounder until i got a doost, been using one 18 odd mths now and i think ive found the holy grail of couplers.

to be fair to it, if it melted off the end of the gun right now id replace it instantly without any grudge, its been flawless for me.

I've not found a nipple yet that it won't fit, my own machines or the place I work. Perhaps I've been lucky.
