    Size of grease fittings on Fineline Routers

    Hi Guys.

    I need to get a new grease fitting for the right z-axis truck.
    They are chrome colored and have a right angle bend.
    The same fittings are used throughout the machine.

    Are they M4 or M6?
    If they are M6 I will order these ones from Avid CNC:

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you.

    No idea but I would put some calipers on one and Google the size. The machines have changed a few times and who knows if all the zerk fittings are the same.

    My early 2018 (May) just used standard off the shelf grease fittings. They are not expensive, just go purchase a couple and see if they fit. I think I paid like $4 for a package of 6 or so. !/4-28 is one US size and I am sure the metric sizes are pretty common also. If you have some Digital calipers use them of course.
