Product Description
BSP Zinc Plated Steel Grease Nipples
These BSP grease nipples provide a convenient connection point for applying lubricant to bearings, joints and other moving mechanical components using a standard hydraulic grease-gun coupler.
Manufactured from steel with a protective zinc-plated finish, they are available with 1/8-inch and 1/4-inch BSP male threads. Choose from straight, 45-degree and 90-degree configurations to suit the position and accessibility of the lubrication point.

Installation Guidance
Confirm the original thread size and thread form before ordering. BSP sizes are nominal pipe-thread designations and do not represent the measured outside diameter of the male thread.
The 1/8-inch BSP thread has 28 threads per inch, while the 1/4-inch BSP thread has 19 threads per inch. Install using the correct spanner or socket on the hexagonal body and avoid applying force directly to the nipple head.
