Alemite AL1620-B 45 Degree Hydraulic Grease Fitting

Product Description

The ALEMITE AL1620-B is a 45-degree hydraulic grease fitting designed for lubrication systems where a straight fitting would interfere with surrounding components or restrict grease gun access. The fitting measures 1-1/8 inches in overall length with a 1/8-inch female NPT thread entry. At 0.03 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight fitting suited for high-volume maintenance applications. Lubrication technicians, mechanics, and fleet service professionals install this type of fitting on equipment bearing points, chassis components, and industrial machinery requiring periodic greasing.

This fitting is used wherever a 45-degree angle improves grease gun alignment in tight or obstructed installation points. Typical applications include agricultural equipment, construction machinery, industrial conveyors, and automotive chassis components. The angled design allows the grease gun coupler to seat and lock cleanly in locations where a straight or 90-degree fitting would not clear surrounding structure. It is sold individually and is well suited for shop stock or service truck inventory.

Key Features

• 45-degree angle body for improved access in confined or obstructed lubrication points
• 1/8-inch female NPT thread for broad compatibility with standard threaded ports
• 1-1/8-inch overall length keeps the fitting low-profile
• Lightweight at 0.03 pounds for use in weight-sensitive or high-count installations
• Standard hydraulic fitting design accepts common grease gun couplers

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or service fitting for equipment with 1/8-inch NPT threaded grease ports requiring a 45-degree hydraulic-style zerk fitting.

Installation Notes

Installation requires a wrench sized to the fitting hex; avoid over-tightening into threaded aluminum or cast housings to prevent thread damage. Relieve any residual grease pressure in the lubrication line before removing an existing fitting. Thread sealant may be applied to the NPT threads per standard practice. Confirm the replacement fitting angle clears adjacent components before seating the grease gun coupler.
