Got a machine with hard to reach grease nipples. Where is the best place to buy the hoses and fittings to route an easy access grease nipple. Like the ones that are on auto lube systems
Steel brake pipe or have hydraulic hose made to length for the application. 1/4 inch or 3/16 hyd hose (or whatever the mm is) also works, more flexible too.
Looking on r/s component website I think I have found what I need. I need it to screw into the grease connector on the bearings and then onto the back of a grease nipple

Those push in pneumatic fittings look convenient, so long as there isn't a blockage in the tube or bearing etc. The burst pressure of the hose for them is an order of magnitude lower than what a good grease gun can deliver. I guess its an easy enough to clear the blockage and replace a blown plastic pipe if that happens.
Some brake lines do have burst pressures above what most grease guns are claimed to deliver.
Thanks.
I did think you meant that you'd found something to adapt conveniently to metal brake line. But air tube and fittings are fine for things that grease easily and regularly.
