A grease gun (pneumatic) 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 from a grease cartridge to a grease fitting or 'nipple'. The channels behind the grease nipple lead to where the lubrication is needed.
Grease fitting on a bearing A grease nipple on the driver's door of a 1956 VW Beetle. A grease fitting, grease nipple, Zerk fitting, grease zerk, Alemite fitting, or divit is a metal fitting used in mechanical systems to feed lubricants, usually lubricating grease, into a bearing under moderate to high pressure using a grease gun.
The M3 is an American .45-caliber submachine gun adopted by the U.S. Army on 12 December 1942, as the United States Submachine Gun, Cal. .45, M3. [12] The M3 was chambered for the same .45 ACP round fired by the Thompson submachine gun , but was cheaper to mass produce and lighter, at the expense of accuracy. [ 12 ]
There are advantages of using an automatic lubrication system over a manual system. For example, there are savings in the costs of human resources. The dangers of accessing difficult to reach lubrication points while a machine is running are avoided. Machines can be running when lubrication takes place, thus decreasing disruption to production.

Timken OK Load is a standardised measurement that indicates the possible performance of extreme pressure (EP) additives in a lubricating grease or oil. The units of measurement are pounds-force or kilograms-force. This measurement is performed using a special test machine and standard block and ring test specimens.
When an injury occurs from manual handling of materials, it often is a result of one of the following underlying condition(s). Awkward posture: Bending or twisting; Repetitive motions: Frequency of a task; Forceful exertions: Carrying or lifting heavy loads; Pressure points: The load applying pressure to select areas on the body only
As with their air-actuated cousins, powder-actuated guns have a muzzle safety interlock. If the muzzle is not pressed against a surface with sufficient force, the firing pin is blocked and cannot reach the load to fire it. This helps ensure that the gun does not discharge in an unsafe manner, causing the nail to become an unrestrained projectile.
