Benefits of Using a Macnaught Grease Gun: -
• High Pressure for Blocked Fittings: Macnaught’s manual lever models are engineered to produce the high pressure necessary to clear blocked grease nipples easily.
• Leak-Free Connections: Most Macnaught guns come standard with the KY SUPERGRIP™ three-jaw high-pressure coupler. This ensures a positive, no-leak connection so the grease reaches the bearing directly without waste.
• Reduced Hand Fatigue: The unique variable stroke piston on the FLEXIGUN® allows for true one-handed operation, delivering high pressure through short strokes or high volume through a full stroke.
• Unmatched Durability: Built with heavy-duty stepped barrels for a secure grip and robust zinc handles, these tools survive harsh environments without breaking or leaking.
• Serviceability & Longevity: Macnaught tools feature screw fasteners rather than permanent crimping, making them fully repairable for years of trouble-free service.
Where Can These Grease Guns Be Used?
Macnaught Grease Guns are versatile tools designed for high-stakes applications across various Canadian sectors:
• Mining & Heavy Earthmoving: High-pressure greasing for heavy equipment joints in rugged terrain.
• Automotive & Trucking: Vital for the maintenance of vehicle ball joints, tie-rod ends, and universal joints.
• Marine Applications: Lubricating outboard motors, steering cables, and boat trailer bearings exposed to water.
• Industrial Manufacturing: Maintaining robotic grease seals and critical bearings in production lines.
• Aviation Maintenance: Precise lubrication of landing gear components and flight control pivots.
• Agriculture & Farming: Ideal for tractors, combines, and implements facing high-vibration and dusty field conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1. What is the difference between a LEVERGUN and a FLEXIGUN?
The LEVERGUN is designed for high-volume and high-pressure greasing using two hands. The FLEXIGUN (Pistol Grip) features a variable stroke for one-handed operation, making it ideal for tight, hard-to-reach spaces.
Q2. Can I use bulk grease with a Macnaught Grease Gun?
Yes, Macnaught’s heavy-duty models are designed for maximum flexibility; they are both bulk-fillable and compatible with standard 14oz (400g) cartridges.
3. What pressure can a Macnaught manual grease gun reach?
Depending on the specific model, our manual guns can produce between 7,000 PSI and 12,000 PSI, providing the power to clear even the most stubborn blocked fittings.
4. How is the KY SUPERGRIP™ coupler helpful?
The KY SUPERGRIP™ provides a positive, leak-free connection that prevents grease wastage and ensures the lubricant is delivered exactly where it’s needed—directly into the bearing.
5. Are Macnaught Grease Guns repairable?
Absolutely. Macnaught designs its tools with screw fasteners and provides a full range of replacement parts, ensuring your tool can be maintained for decades.
