American Forge & Foundry 8036 Grease Fitting Bearing Packer

Hand-Operated Bearing Packer 8036

The American Forge & Foundry 8036 is a grease fitting bearing packer designed for hand-operated or power lube equipment. It targets mechanics and maintenance crews who need to lubricate taper roller bearings precisely on vehicles or machinery. The tool accepts bearings with a minimum half-inch inner diameter, a maximum five-inch outside diameter and a height range from a quarter-inch to two inches. It suits workshops that service a variety of bearing sizes without automated systems.

Size Range and Manual Operation Limits

The packer works only within the stated dimensional window, so bearings smaller than half an inch inside or larger than five inches outside cannot be serviced. Height must fall between a quarter-inch and two inches, excluding thicker or thinner units from this tool. Operation relies on hand or standard power lube pressure, meaning very high-volume or continuous-duty greasing may exceed practical throughput. Users needing faster cycle times or larger bearing coverage will require different equipment.

Steel Construction and Grease Fitting Interface

The unit is built from steel to withstand repeated pressure cycles in a shop environment. Its grease fitting accepts standard couplers used on hand guns and power lube rigs, allowing quick connection without adapters. The open-frame design lets operators centre the bearing by eye and flush old grease through the rollers during packing. No sealed reservoir or metering valve is included, so grease volume is controlled entirely by the operator.
