Recently purchased a old style grease fitting tip from Snyders, and have run into a problem. Seems my gun (China) is threaded to a metric M10-1.0 while the tip is UNF at 3/8-24. Close, but no ceegar.

Does anyone know of a decent hand-operated grease gun that is threaded to fit the 3/8-24 UNF size tip?

I use a mixture of CHASSIS Grease & GEAR oil in steering boxes.

Really? I have several different 'tips' from needle to the "old style grease fitting tip from Snyders" and they all fit both of my grease guns from HF. I just assumed it was a standard size.

Not sure what that has to do with the grease gun tip fitting his grease gun...

can you find a modern grease fitting to screw into the adapter that you can snap onto the standard end you have on your gun?

Are you sure that it's not 1/8-27 NPT? That's what most grease guns are.

Positive it's a M10-1.0 Definitely not NPT.
