5-Ft. Long Grease Gun Hose Extension

5-Ft Long Grease Gun Hose Extension FARM SHOP Miscellaneous “I often have to work by myself and sometimes have trouble reaching grease zerks on equipment So I decided to solve the problem ” says Tom Lass Cromwell Minn “I removed the hose from my grease gun went to a hydraulic hose store and had them make a 5-ft hose extension They fitted a male end to the grease gun and a female end to one end of the original hose so that it could be screwed onto the grease gun I carry the grease gun in a homemade holster that hangs from my belt ” Lass says that with the original 18-in long hose he often couldn’t get the hose on the zerk and maneuver the grease gun at the same time However with the 5-ft long hose he can reach just about any zerk even if it’s located above his head He made the holster out of 3-in dia pvc pipe “I glued a cap onto one end then cut a 1 1/2-in wide slot all the way down through the center of the pipe and set the grease gun in it I bent a 1-in metal strap and riveted it to the other end of the pipe to form a loop that fits over my pants belt ” He paid $15 for the 5-ft long hose including the male and female ends Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Tom Lass 5502 Hill Rd Cromwell Minn 55726 ph 218 644-3235
