Plews Lubrimatic 11-159 Grease Fitting 45 Degree

Product Description

The PLEWS LUBRIMATIC 11-159 is a 45-degree short-angle grease fitting designed for lubrication points in tight or restricted spaces. The 1/8-inch fitting threads into standard grease ports and delivers grease from a zerk-style coupler to bearings, joints, and pivot assemblies. Constructed from steel with a corrosion-resistant plated finish, it includes a built-in ball check that prevents contaminants from entering the lubrication port when the grease gun is disconnected. Maintenance technicians, mechanics, and equipment service professionals install these fittings during routine preventive maintenance and component replacement work.

This fitting is suited for agricultural equipment, fleet vehicles, industrial machinery, and general mechanical assemblies where a straight fitting cannot be accessed with a standard grease gun coupler. The 45-degree angle allows a coupler to engage the fitting from an offset approach, making it practical for chassis components, steering linkages, and other confined lubrication points. Sold individually as a single-pack unit.

Key Features

• 45-degree short-angle body for access in tight or restricted spaces
• 1/8-inch thread size fits standard grease ports
• Steel construction with corrosion-resistant plated finish for durability
• Built-in ball check prevents contaminant ingress when fitting is not in use
• Precision-engineered for consistent seating and reliable grease delivery

Compatibility

Designed as a standard replacement grease fitting for any application requiring a 45-degree short-angle zerk fitting with 1/8-inch thread size.

Installation Notes

Install using an appropriately sized open-end wrench or socket to avoid damaging the fitting body. Clean the grease port threads before installation to ensure a proper seal and prevent cross-threading. Wipe the fitting tip clean before attaching a grease gun coupler to reduce the risk of introducing contaminants into the bearing or joint. Follow equipment manufacturer torque specifications where provided in the original service documentation.
