Re: [VintageLambo] Re: Espada bushings & zerks

Hi John, I drew a quick sketch of a zerk fitting. It is nothing more that a nipple with a hollow center through which you can force grease (from an attached grease gun). The grease gun fitting is such that it "snaps" to the exposed nipple and creates a connection strong enough to withstand the force of the pressurized grease being forced through it.
