TECALEMIT Grease Gun?
« on: May 06, 2017, 02:23:13 PM »
Hello, I am looking for info on this tool. British Made, British Patent. I am not sure if it is all there, or if there is something with the tip, or, tip assembly. Thanks, Lou

It's all there.  The tube should be able to extend out and fill with grease.  Hold the tip on a zerk or other hole and press or hit with a rubber hammer, the tube presses into the body and forces grease out the tip.
Mine is a Nubrex brand and has two telescoping tubes but is otherwise about the same size.
Is it for sale? This should be a desirable tool kit item for folks with vintage Brit motorbikes.  I can post it on Brit Bike Forum for you, which is a world wide group of owners.

Hello, Al. Thanks for the reply, & the offer to help. I will PM you. One other question regarding the grease gun, is there supposed to be a hole in the cone shaped tip? It looks like it may have been dropped, the tip is now blunt. I can put a small hole in it , if needed. Thanks again, Lou

Yes, the hole is small as it should be able to fit into a grease zerk and still "seal".
