Grease Guns – Lever Type – Cat Filling

A grease gun is a common workshop and garage tool used for lubrication. The purpose of the grease gun is to apply lubricant through an aperture to a specific point, usually on a grease fitting or nipple. The channels behind the grease nipple lead to where the lubrication is needed. The grease gun is charged or loaded with any of the various types of lubricants, but usually a thicker heavier type of grease is used.  Hand-powered, where there is no trigger mechanism, and the grease is forced through the aperture by the back-pressure built up by pushing on the butt of the grease gun, which slides a piston through the body of the tool, pumping grease out of the aperture.
