Finish Line Premium Grease, Grease Kit

If you do your own maintenance of any small to medium-sized machines (and I'd include everything from chainsaws to bicycle components in that class), this is a very handy tool to have in your kit. It hooks up to a standard tube of grease fairly easily (mating plastic and metal threads is always a bit dicey), and then puts out a very controllable fine line of grease with one hand. It makes it much easier to grease small bearings, and it works quite nicely to add grease to the needle bearings in your chainsaw clutch. Clean, easy, and effective. That's all I ever want from a tool, and I'm only wondering why it took me so long to get this one.

Works on the native kayak drive unit

Gun does work and the grease that comes with it is also good, sadly I had to use some other grease (I like more) with the gun. I thought it was funny that Finish Line has this product pairing available when they don't fit each other.

While I personally use this to inject specifically teflon-based grease in the bearings of bicycles, a grease-gun has many uses around the house. "The squeaky wheel gets the grease", as the saying goes, but trouble is that it's often very, very difficult to get the grease to where it needs to go. The grease-flow holes of door hinges are tiny and you can't really get any lasting lubricant into them without a grease-gun. Most folks spray in some WD40 because is usually has that long, plastic nozzle, but of course WD40 only a water displacer, not a real, durable lube that will last more than a day or so.

I really like this combo of grease and dispenser. The grease is a high quality product and the unit to disperse the product is easy to use and super easy to control the amount of grease in the exact location you want. I like that you can just screw a new tube on and get back to work in no time.

Needed a basic bicycle grease gun and this did the job. Used it a good deal on bb's, hubs, etc. once you get the tube feeding well, it works great. Appreciate the tube of grease it comes with. It goes a long way. Definitely recommend.

Didn't realize I needed one of these. Been doing without for over 40 years. It does take up a little more space in the tool drawer than just a tube of grease but it makes up for that in convenience. I keep a rubber slip on cover on the tip to prevent contaminants from sticking to it. I've only used it for finishline grease so I don't know what other products will fit on it.

This item failed the very first time I used it. The grease gun's "barrel" has a metal tip, but the "barrel" itself is made of weak molded plastic. That creates a stress point where the metal tip is molded into the plastic "barrel". The very first time I used this tool, the "barrel" broke at the point where the metal tip was inserted. I have roughly 50 years experience working on bicycles, motorcycles and cars, and this is one of the WORST designed and constructed tools I have ever used. I will replace it with a Park Tool bicycle grease gun which is all-metal construction.
