Proudly made in America by Dualco Inc, the original patent for the Utility Grease Guns dates all the way back to the 1930s – That’s 90 years old! The rights have changed hands a few times, but Dualco have looked after them for the past 50 years. As Dualco say, these guns are often imitated but never surpassed! – and that’s for a few reasons, keep reading for the specifics.
This gun is compatible with all 9/16 – 18 UNF threaded grease tubes. I am currently working to compile a database of compatible greases. If you have any on hand you can measure the threads, or test fit, please either send us a message on Instagram or send an email to jack@beautbike.com, it will be highly appreciated! Just like it’s bigger brother, the Utility Gun, the Tube Gun is mutli-viscous-compatible and can handle a wide variety of greases and pastes, all the way from Slick Honey to Copper Paste.
I’ve worked in plenty of workshops where decade’s old Dualco’s are still in daily use. As long as you occasionally clean them them they’ll easily last a lifetime! After all, their two moving parts are always lubricated. Servicing the guns just involves disassembling them and cleaning the four different assemblies then putting some fresh teflon tape on the threads of the plunger and tip. We don’t have a recommended time frame for when you should be servicing them as it depends on how often you use the gun and what grease/paste is inside – so just do it if you notice any leaks or the plunger is sticking.
Replacement parts are available, please send an email to jack@beautbike.com.au.
