Category · Push-type grease guns – simple manual high-pressure lubrication for nipples & oil points

Push-type grease guns manual high-pressure lubrication – 40 to 300 cc

MATO high-pressure push-type grease guns for the simple manual lubrication of grease nipples and oil points – without a cartridge, without compressed air, without power. Simply fill from the grease supply and press grease in with a pushing motion. In four volume grades (40–300 cc), as a compact PG version or as an oil push-type gun PO for oil and fluid greases. From €11.50.

✅ 40 – 300 cc fill volume ✅ Without a cartridge – directly fillable ✅ Universal & pointed nozzle included ✅ MATO – from €11.50

What is a push-type grease gun?

A push-type grease gun (also a piston push-type gun) is the simplest form of manual grease gun – a cylindrical container with a piston that is pressed against a grease nipple by hand. No lever mechanism, no cartridge, no hose needed. The grease is filled directly from the supply into the gun and pressed into the nipple with a single push.

PT series – standard & large volume

MATO PT series in four volume grades: PT 40C-2 (40 cc, €11.50) for few lubrication points, PT 80-2 (80 cc, €19.90) as the mid-range, PT 150-2 (150 cc, €29.50) as the standard solution, PT 300-2 (300 cc, €32.50) for many lubrication points per fill. All galvanised with a universal and a pointed nozzle.

PG 150-2 – compact version

The MATO PG 150-2 (€32.50) is the more compact version with 150 cc – shorter and handier than the PT 150-2, for close work in hard-to-reach areas and for the toolbox on the go. Also with a universal and a pointed nozzle.

PO 150-2 – oil & fluid greases

The MATO PO 150-2 (€33.50) is the special variant for oil and fluid greases (NLGI 000–0) – normal push-type grease guns are designed for solid grease; the PO 150-2 has a correspondingly adapted seal geometry for low-viscosity lubricants. For oil points, bearing points with an oil fill and centralised lubrication systems with fluid grease.

The right push-type grease gun for your application

📏

Volume by number of lubrication points

40 cc: 1–3 points. 80 cc: 3–8 points. 150 cc: 8–20 points – the most popular format. 300 cc: many points or less frequent refilling. As a guide: approx. 1–3 g of grease per grease nipple with normal lubrication.

📦

Standard PT or compact PG?

PT 150-2 (standard, €29.50) and PG 150-2 (compact, €32.50) have the same fill volume. The PG is shorter – better for close work and the toolbox. The PT for a comfortable grip and a better overview of the grease supply.

💧

Oil and fluid greases – PO 150-2

For oil and fluid greases (NLGI 000–0), use only the PO 150-2. Standard push-type grease guns do not seal sufficiently with low-viscosity media. The PO has adapted piston seals for low-viscosity lubricants.

🔧

Both nozzles included

All push-type grease guns are supplied with a universal nozzle (for conical-head nipples DIN 71412) and a pointed nozzle (for oil bores and bearing points without a nipple). Simply switch depending on the lubrication point – no need to buy accessories separately.

⚖️

Push-type gun vs. lever/battery grease gun

Push-type gun: direct thrust force, no hose, no cartridge, the simplest handling. For few, easily accessible nipples. Lever/battery grease gun: more pressure through the lever, with a hose for hard-to-reach points, more suitable for many nipples and regular lubrication service.

💡

Filling without a cartridge

Push-type grease guns are filled directly with loose grease – pull out the piston, hold the opening in the grease bucket, draw the piston in. No cartridge purchase needed. For cleaner filling from the bucket, an ecoFILL grease filler unit is recommended.

Frequently asked questions about push-type grease guns

A push-type grease gun is the simplest form of grease gun – a cylindrical housing with a piston and a nozzle. The housing is filled with grease, the nozzle is pressed onto the grease nipple, the piston is pushed in – grease flows directly into the nipple. No lever, no hose, no cartridge system. For the direct, simple lubrication of few lubrication points.
High-pressure push-type grease guns generate, at full hand force, pressures in the range of several hundred bar – sufficient for all standard grease nipples (DIN 71412). As there is no lever, the pressure depends on the hand force applied. For stuck or clogged nipples, lever grease guns or pneumatic grease guns with a constant 400–600 bar are more suitable.
Universal nozzle: a conical attachment for standard grease nipples DIN 71412 (conical-head nipples) – the most common nipple type in Europe. Pointed nozzle: a pointed, cylindrical shape for oil bores and bearing points without a nipple head. Both nozzles are included in the scope of delivery of all MATO push-type grease guns – simply switch depending on the lubrication point.
Push-type grease guns have no cartridge. Filling: pull out the piston, hold the opening in the grease bucket, slowly draw the piston in (suction principle). Or unscrew the nozzle and press the grease in by hand. For clean, quick filling: use an ecoFILL grease filler unit – it pumps grease directly in from the bucket.
A push-type grease gun is ideal when: few lubrication points are lubricated occasionally, easily accessible nipples without a long hose, a low initial purchase cost (from €11.50) is sought, and no compressed-air connection and no cartridge are available. For many nipples, a daily recurring lubrication service or hard-to-reach points: a lever, battery or pneumatic grease gun is more suitable.
The PO 150-2 has specially sealed piston seals for oil and fluid greases (NLGI 000–0) – normal push-type grease guns do not seal sufficiently with low-viscosity media, and the medium runs out uncontrollably. The PO 150-2 is used for: bearing points with oil lubrication instead of grease lubrication, oil points on machines without a grease nipple, centralised lubrication systems with fluid grease (NLGI 000–0). For standard lubricating grease (NLGI 1–3), use the PT or PG series.
