LM8UU/LMU8 Linear Bearing Grease Applicator

thingiverse

Fixed the Thread pitch for grease tube from 1.5mm to 2mm as revised. This is my adaptation of a Linear Bearing Grease Applicator tailored for LM8UU and LMU8 Linear Bearings. It boasts a screw cap that firmly secures the Linear Bearing in place while you grease your Linear Bearings. The Cap creates a seal to facilitate forcing grease between the ball bearing, it has a small exhaust hole to permit trapped air to escape and provide an indicator of when the grease has filled the Linear Bearing. By covering the exhaust hole you can create a higher pressure in the Applicator to exert more force on the Grease to aid in the greasing process. The Cap also features a freely rotating middle section to minimize the Linear Bearing moving in the Applicator. I have only tested this Applicator on a tube of SuperLube but other grease tubes with similar screw threads may function similarly. Any issues or concerns please let me know and I will endeavor to resolve them.
