The unit I received worked perfectly with no leaks whatsoever -- the head is actually a bit shorter than a standard straight coupler and fit quite nicely into the spaces I needed it
I don't understand some of the other reviews that complain the head is too big, the spring is too tight, it's difficult to connect and disconnect from zerks, or it leaks. The unit I received worked perfectly with no leaks whatsoever -- the head is actually a bit shorter than a standard straight coupler and fit quite nicely into the spaces I needed it. I just snapped my standard grease gun straight coupler onto it and when I was ready to remove it the spring easily compressed to allow the sleeve to expose the connection and a quick twist did the job. Not difficult at all. The spring loaded sleeve keeps the connection to the grease gun hose from wobbling. The unit snapped easily and tightly onto the zerk fittings and just as easily came off when finished greasing -- exactly like any other standard coupler. There is no oozing or leaking of grease anywhere and my hose coupler remained tightly connected to the unit and the unit to the zerk fitting while pumping grease -- all using only one hand to pump. No need to hold the unit to the fitting or the hose to the unit. Works exactly as intended... a handy accessory for any grease gun.

Works like a charm
I thought it screwed onto my grease gun hose but I was wrong. It connects to the fitting on your hose already by connecting to a zerk fitting and worked very well for me.

It works
Got this to use on a fitting on my boat. Unfortunately, even with the 90, it's still too tall. The function of it is good though. It will fit a standard or small grease gun. You just push it onto your grease gun and it locks on. Simple to use.

This is perfect!
You'd think you'd not get so excited over a zerk 90 degree adapter. But... honestly, this thing works better than the stock end at the end of the hose AND it fits in places where the straight one won't go. Should have bought this 40 years ago! A+

Gets into tite spots where no grease zerk should go.
I liked the way it snaped right onto the tip of my grease gun, With No leaks. It snaps and stays on the center pulley zerk of my zero turn Simplicity . No coming off, it locks on nicely. Great for getting into those difficult grease zerks.

Works Better if you disassemble & connect elbow directly to the threaded end of the grease gun hose.
2019 Jayco North PointIf you have the Five Star Handling Package with the Dexter Heavy-duty Shackles with Wet Bolt Fasteners and Bronze Bushings, you may have found it puzzling how to grease them.At least on my unit, the wet bolts were installed with the zerk fittings between the tires and the suspension. If they were installed in reverse, greasing the wet bolts would be simple.It is not possible to get a standard straight grease gun fitting on the zerk fittings without removing the wheels.I found a 90 degree grease fitting on Amazon. It snaps right onto the existing end of the grease gun hose fitting. However, the amount of pressure required to get the grease into these wet bolts has caused two of them to leak and finally break.See the pictures below.I took the standard straight tip off of the grease gun, took the 90 degree elbow apart and screwed it directly to the end of the grease gun hose, replacing the standard straight tip with a 90 degree elbow fitting.By eliminating the snap-on piece from the 90 degree fitting, attaching the threaded elbow directly to the grease gun, it allowed adequate pressure to push the grease all the way through to the opposite side of the wet bolts.Although still a snug fit, it does fit between the zerk fittings on the wet bolts and the tires without removing the wheels.You do need to grease these wet bolts roughly every 10,000 miles. From the factory, there was very little grease in my wet bolts.One final thing. Make sure you clean the zerk fittings with a rag or paper towels, otherwise you will be pumping all of that dirt into your wet bolts.Here is the link to the Amazon grease fitting. If you use it as directed, it will leak and break.Hope this is helpful.

Am absolute must have, especially if you dont want to jack up the pickup!
Yes, this doesnt fit in all tight spaces, such as where the driveshaft connects to the rear axle on a 1997 GMC 1500, but to access the lower ball joints without jacking up the vehicle, get this attachment.It clips right into the standard grease fitting amd gives you the right angle (90 degree). But you will need pliers to pry it off when you are done.And no, it works with cordless grease guns. Just set the setting on low squirts, if you want.

90 degree lubrication
Quality item at a fare price. Makes greasing my pickup easier because I don't have to remove the front skid plate to lube fittings that are hard to reach without the 90 degree end.

Greasing Made Easy 👍
Did NOT fit on hand pump grease guns even though it is advertised as so. Maybe I just got a defective one. Will try buying another one.💥 UPDATE 💥 Ordered a 2nd one & this is the best adapter piece I've purchased. Greasing my nipples have never been so easy !!! (LOL 🤭) It does what it's supposed to do & I fully recommend this product now !!!If this review was helpful please hit the "HELPFUL" button below. Thx
