Therefore, they can be used without lubrication.Lubrication type PILLOBALLs are not provided with prepacked grease. Perform proper lubrication for use. Operating without lubrication will increase the wear of the sliding contact surfaces and cause seizure.K35B-5120RRemarkHSP-3(Yamada Corporation)can be used for them.The above nozzles can be atached on grease gun shown below.the standard Body of grease gunLubrication Nozzle504030201001020501002005001000Total sliding distanceSmA-5126T×310A-5120Rmm/N2pContact pressure
