The LockNLube LNL231 is a standard 1/8″ NPT inline hose swivel that makes greasing faster and easier on manual hand-pump grease guns. Installed between the gun and the hose, the swivel lets the hose rotate freely so you can line up your grease coupler without twisting the gun body or fighting a kinked whip hose. Built from heavy-duty steel and rated to 12,000 PSI, it handles day-to-day shop forces—both internal pressure and side loading—without seizing. The result is smoother coupler alignment on tight fittings, less wear on the whip hose, and a cleaner, more predictable grease flow.
This model is the standard LNL231 (1/8″ NPT) version used on most manual grease guns. LockNLube also manufactures thread-specific variants for popular cordless and air tools (fine 7/16″-28, coarse 7/16″-20, and M12 × 1), so mixed fleets can match the correct swivel to each gun. If you’ve ever struggled to hold a coupler square on a Zerk while the hose tries to spring back, a grease hose swivel is a simple upgrade that saves time at every lube point.

Technicians in these settings value a swivel because it reduces the small delays that add up during routine lubrication. By letting the whip hose rotate at the gun, the LNL231 keeps the grease coupler square on the fitting, which helps prevent leaks and keeps hands clear of moving parts. The 12,000 PSI rating handles stubborn zerks without concern, and the standard 1/8″ NPT threading matches most manual grease guns found in shops and service trucks. For mixed fleets, clearly labeled thread variants make it easy to standardize tool setups while keeping each gun correctly matched.

Why Professionals Choose the LockNLube 1/8″ NPT Standard Inline Grease Hose Swivel for Manual Grease Guns
Maintenance crews choose the LNL231 because it improves control at the fitting without changing how they grease. The inline swivel lets the whip hose rotate, so the grease coupler stays square and sealed on the Zerk instead of skidding off under hose tension. On a manual grease gun, this small part reduces kinks, protects the hose, and helps deliver grease where it belongs. The 1/8″ NPT thread makes it a drop-in match for most hand-pump guns, and the 12,000 PSI rating handles stubborn fittings with confidence. For users searching for a “grease gun hose swivel” or “1/8 NPT swivel for manual grease gun,” the LNL231 offers a durable, compact solution that speeds routine lubrication and cuts frustration on every service round.
