Swing Arm Grease Nipple

[Matt_Harrington]

Anyone have the size to hand?
The parts book has it as : (B.T6S) 96201-80000

Measured mine and it seems a strange size....

It is a strange size and genuine are not that expensive, just remember to use a tube to hit on the flange not the end

Contact Julie as i just filled up her stock draw with them

Thanks. I'll put the old one back until I have time to make some s/steel ones - hence I was asking for the size.....

[Bryanj]

How are you going to make the internal check valve?

[Matt_Harrington]

I have some larger threaded s/s ones and I was going to re-thread them - if that makes sense....

[Oddjob]

You're going to rethread the nipple stem or the swinging arm Matt?

Seems simpler to rethread the bolt rather than the nipple. At least then replacements are easy to find.

[Bryanj]

The originals are push in but i have drilled andctapped the bolt 6mm before now

Been doin stupid hours due to idiots closing the M5 mate

[Oddjob]

Isn't that part just a normal size Matt? It's the same as the 550 swinging arm nipple and I'm sure I've replaced that with a stainless one before now. What thread pitch is it?

I can not even remember the last time i was on a Motorway. As you know Bryan, not to many in Lincolnshire

Ken, it's taper thread. It maybe M6 x 1 but I will check later when I unearth my nipple box (that just sounds wrong!) I have some identical S/steel ones but the thread is bigger so I was just contemplating modifying one .....Anyway, the old one is back where it belongs!
