Mr. Hives from GWH.{George W. Hancock - Head Chateauroux} Y3898 20.7.22. REPORT ON T.A.B. GREASE OR OIL GUN. Spring grip type. Barrel 4 1/2" long 1.843"dia. Screw 18thds per inch 7/16 dia. Weight empty 2 lbs. 4 ozs. Flexible tubing is a special feature of this gun - a much improved type than what is fitted to other makes of grease gun. This gun is very hard to screw up when using grease but is fairly easy when using oil. Pressure must be always taken off before it can be fitted to another plug. GWH.{George W.
