About LockNLube Lever Grip Grease Gun
Overall Feedback:
84% positive
89% liked the variety of compatible accessories
With the new lock on fitting, I don't need to hold it on, so I can use the preferred lever action instead of the pistol grip.
The Lock and Lube fitting works perfectly and comes with a rebuild kit, which was surprising.
74% appreciated the easy cleaning process, but 26% found it tedious
I called the phone number and they sent the missing parts by rapid delivery.
The Lock and Lube fitting works flawlessly and comes with a rebuild kit, which was a pleasant surprise.
The steel piston of the grease gun gets sloppy in the cast pot metal cap and loses prime, then no longer draws grease into the cylinder.
84% found it comfortable to hold and use
The pumping mechanism delivers the right amount of grease and the handle action is easy.
81% appreciated its rugged construction, though 19% experienced breakage
I have mentioned that the grease gun is durable and of high quality.
The grease gun is fine except for some scratches after being run over by both the front and rear tires.
I brought the second one to a local shop and it was also unusable junk, indicating that the product is not durable.
The lock and lube fitting didn't work well the second time I used it.
82% found it easy to reload and operate, while 18% had difficulties
With the new lock on fitting, I don't need to hold the gun, so I can use the preferred lever action without the pistol grip.
For automotive applications, I find the lever action design easier to use. The squeeze version works well for hard to reach places.
In tight spaces, it is difficult to use the grease gun.
79% liked the large grease capacity, but 21% needed frequent refills
I noticed that one of the grease guns could only fill up 1 grease cert and then stopped pumping.
One of the grease guns only fills up 1 grease cert and then stops pumping.
93% liked the long and flexible hose
I preferred the pistol grip action 20 years ago to hold the hose square on the fitting and prevent leakage.
I found it surprising that the extension hose was made in Germany.
The place to hook the jaws for storage allows the hose to form a loop, which is convenient for carrying or hanging on a nail.
88% praised for its leak-free design, though 12% experienced spills
I dislike grease guns because they leak and make a mess around me.
I questioned why it is difficult to make a grease gun that does not leak.
While pumping, the grease gun grips the zerk as advertised but leaks around the edges.
My 2nd grease gun leaked all over the inside of my travel box, indicating poor leak control.

84% praised for its quiet operation, while 16% found it too loud
I haven't mentioned anything specific about the noise level of the grease gun.
At first, it felt like there was a bubble in the grease tube and the handle would get all spongy and then start working again.
I noticed that one of the guns stopped pumping after filling up 1 grease cert. If you push on the plunger rod, grease will come out of the Lock fitting but it will not pump.
One of the guns stopped pumping after filling up 1 grease cert. When pushing on the plunger rod, grease comes out of the Lock fitting but it does not pump.
When I removed the snap lock, the grease blew out everywhere, indicating that it might be noisy.

82% praised for its high pressure output, while 18% found it too weak
I found that the grease gun grips the zerk as advertised but leaks around the edges while pumping.
I had trouble pumping grease into the hinges with the grease gun and it built up pressure in the hose.
I am frustrated that despite being around for over a hundred years, grease guns are still not made properly. Manufacturers should be ashamed of themselves for not being able to make a grease gun for $60 that pushes grease out only where intended.
