[QUOTE="BillM, post: 3687413, member: 45785"] Lots of zerks are threaded, some are not. There are also several sizes, and threads, both metric and SAE. The ones that are not threaded are called "push-in" fittings. So it could still be a grease fitting. 1/8" NPT & 1/4 NPT are common sizes for SAE grease zerks, but there are also some others. [URL]https://www.grainger.com/category/lubrication/fittings-and-hose-systems/grease-fittings[/URL] Doesn't prove it IS a grease fitting, but it could be. Silly question for you? How is it in your toolbox and you don't know what it is? Do you just pick up random hardware and put it in your toolbox? Not snarking on you, either, because I do exactly that. Spent 7 years working in an industrial laundry, picking up pockets full of random hardware... Don't work there anymore, but I've been picking up random hardware wherever I found it since I was a young pup. Bill [/QUOTE]
