M6 malethread 316 stainless steel 45° elbow oil zerk (grease nipple) tube/pipe fitting designed for reliable, angled lubrication in tight or hardtoreach locations. Key benefits Angled access: 45° elbow allows direct greasing where a straight fitting cannot reach, reducing hose bends and improving serviceability. Corrosionresistant construction: Made from 316 stainless steel for longterm durability and resistance to rust and pitting in harsh or outdoor environments. Secure, standard connection: M6 male thread provides a compact, reliable mechanical fit for systems and ports designed for M6 grease fittings. Smooth lubrication flow: Designed for use with grease guns and couplers built for oil zerk nipples, helping deliver grease efficiently to bearings, joints, and fittings. Key attributes Thread: M6 male Angle: 45 degree elbow Material: 316 stainless steel Type: Oil zerk / grease nipple Application: Tube/pipe fitting for lubrication points Typical use cases Industrial machinery: Provide angled lubrication access to bearings, pivot joints, and linkages on assembly lines and production equipment where space is limited. Marine or outdoor equipment: Install on winches, steering linkages, or deck machinery where 316 stainless steel helps resist corrosion from saltwater or humid environments. Small engines and equipment: Use on agricultural implements, lawn and garden machines, or specialty vehicles where compact M6 fittings and an elbow orientation improve reach and hose routing. Installation and maintenance Thread the M6 male fitting into a compatible M6 female port and tighten to a snug, leak fit with the appropriate wrench. Use a grease gun or compatible coupler made for oil zerk nipples to apply lubricant through the fitting to the intended lubrication point. Check periodically for secure mounting, cleanliness, and proper flow; if the fitting becomes damaged or blocked. Why choose this fitting When straight fittings are difficult to position, the 45° elbow provides a simple, durable solution. Built from 316 stainless steel and sized with a compact M6 male thread, this oil zerk grease nipple is suited to applications requiring corrosion resistance, compact mounting, and reliable lubrication delivery.
