The SKF LAPN grease nipple is an essential component for lubricating bearings and machinery. Its design allows a grease gun to be connected quickly and lubricant to be supplied directly to the friction point. Precision-made, it ensures efficient sealing and a long service life even under demanding conditions. It is the practical solution for keeping your equipment running without interruptions.
The designation LAPN identifies the grease nipples in the SKF series. The suffix UNF indicates that the thread is unified fine (UNF), very common on equipment of American origin. For example, the part number LAPN 1/4UNF corresponds to a nipple with a 1/4 inch UNF thread. Knowing this nomenclature allows you to select the correct replacement according to your machine's thread.
These nipples are used in a wide variety of industries in Argentina, such as food, metallurgy, oil and automotive. They are found on bearings, pumps, electric motors, presses and power transmission equipment. Their purpose is to facilitate periodic lubrication without the need to disassemble components, which reduces maintenance times and prevents premature failures.
To select the right nipple, check the type and size of thread at the lubrication point. The LAPN series offers metric and gas threads depending on the suffix, so it is essential to identify the standard of the female thread. During assembly, make sure the thread is clean and apply the recommended torque to prevent leaks. Regular lubrication with the right grease extends bearing life.
SKF grease nipples are interchangeable with those of other recognized brands, provided the thread type and size match. When looking for a replacement, compare the dimensions and thread pitch. At MR Accesorios Industriales we supply the SKF brand as part of our grease and lubrication offering, and we can advise you on finding the equivalent nipple.
