Grease guns for Africa
3rd Quarter 2009
Other technologies
Genflex has recently placed an order for 900 foot-operated grease guns from a major manufacturer of grease equipment. The manufacturer has modified its foot-operated gun to improve operation. The competitively-priced units are available in three colours (dark red, plant yellow and sky blue).
The grease gun is small enough to be held safely in the cab of any earthmoving machinery that requires regular servicing. It comes with a standard 2 metre-long hose, but other lengths of up to 50 metres are available. The lid is fixed to the body, helping to prevent foreign particles from entering the pumping system. The unit is suitable for Numbers 0, 1 and 2 pumpable grease only.
All spares are ex-stock and held in Genflex’s Alberton factory and delivery is ex-stock from any Genflex, Singlehurst or Interlock branch countrywide.
