Dairy farmers, look away now.
Looks like around £20 gets you a locking nipple coupler....:oops:. Just wondering if they work as well as suggested, and if so, which is best to get?

No, they're all w4nk unless you have a nice new machine with banks of greasers all lined up.

whenever I've had a clip on coupler I always end up going round with two grease guns on our older gear, need a good standard coupler to finish what the clip on couldn't.

I've been fairly pleased with the Doost.

I've got one on a floppy hose and it's rubbish. Too big, too slow. Back to the hard hose with adjustable coupler that came with the gun, replaced straight grease nipples with angled ones as needed.

The long version of the gurtech , works well through PTO guards.

Been using on a pair of grease guns for yrs. Not found a nipple that I can't grease yet. Would never go back to a standard end . Using g couplers.

Got a g coupler about 5 months ago. Works well so far. Alot handier than havin to pump the gun against the machine or against my leg while my other hand holds the pipe

My GCoupler (on a Lube Shuttle gun) started leaking excessively last week, and I didn’t hesitate to get another one straight away. They last for years hanging in the shed.👍

I’ve only found a couple of nipples it wouldn’t fit on, which clearly means they don’t need greasing?
Alternatively, the old air locking ‘plunger’ type grease gun still has a normal end on, just to remind me how clean and handy the Lube Shuttle is.
