Specifications
The Lincoln Industrial 1142CLR is a robust lever-type grease gun designed for demanding lubrication tasks. It features a lubricant capacity of 16 ounces for bulk grease or 14.5 ounces for cartridges. This model delivers a maximum operating pressure of 7,500 psi. Each full stroke dispenses approximately 1 ounce of grease per 33 strokes. The grease gun accommodates three loading methods: suction, cartridge, or bulk. Its construction includes a heavy-gauge powder-coated steel barrel and a rugged cast iron pump head for enhanced durability. The tool measures 17.25 inches in length, 7.38 inches in height, and 3 inches in width, with a total weight of 3.8 pounds.
Key Features
This grease gun incorporates a high-strength clear tube assembly crafted from durable polycarbonate and aircraft aluminum adapters, creating a resilient and long-lasting tool. A jam-proof toggle mechanism prevents plunger binding or accidental bending, ensuring consistent operation. The precision-fit, hardened plunger is designed to resist scoring, preventing lubricant bypass and extending the gun's service life. An exclusive "Flip-Over" follower ensures a superior seal for both cartridge and bulk loading applications. For user convenience, an extra-heavy follower spring guarantees positive priming and uninterrupted pumping action, while a spacer on the follower rod handle helps prevent finger pinching. An accessible check valve allows for easy cleaning without requiring complete gun disassembly. The design also features a longer handle, providing increased leverage during operation.
Applications
The Lincoln Industrial 1142CLR grease gun is suitable for a wide array of lubrication requirements across various sectors. It is commonly used in automotive maintenance for vehicles such as trucks and cars. In agricultural settings, it effectively lubricates machinery including tractors, plows, and harvesters. Industrial environments utilize this tool for maintaining heavy machinery, bearings, and conveyor systems. It also supports construction equipment like excavators, loaders, and cranes. Furthermore, this versatile grease gun serves general lubrication tasks in workshop maintenance and other applications requiring precise grease disbursement.
Benefits
The clear tube design of this grease gun offers significant advantages by allowing visual identification of the grease type, whether bulk or cartridge, effectively preventing costly cross-contamination and misapplication. Users can visually confirm the quantity of grease remaining in the tube, aiding in inventory management and timely refills. This transparency also enables the visual detection of air pockets, which helps eliminate the loss of prime during operation. The durable clear tube, proven in military maintenance support, is designed to withstand harsh conditions and resist damage from drops or other tools. Its resilient shell minimizes waste by preventing grease bypass, ensuring efficient lubricant delivery. The robust construction, including a hardened plunger and rugged pump head, contributes to a longer tool life and dependable performance. Simplified maintenance is achieved through an accessible check valve, allowing for easy cleaning without extensive disassembly.
