Norton Type Angled Grease Nipple and Red Fibre Washer - i.e. Wheels and Girder Forks: (Pack of 6)

Imperial thread angled grease nipple of type with angle/finish similar to that originally fitted to Norton wheel hubs, girder fork blades and other areas where the small straight grease nipple did not give easy access.  Also comes with correct size red fibre washer. 

This listing is for a pack of 6 grease nipples and red fibre washers (slightly cheaper than when bought individually)

These are a good quality UK sourced grease nipple - and most importantly, we obtain specially with the original style 'silver' coloured plating (unlike most modern grease nipples, which are mostly only available  in a gold coloured plating supplied - which looks totally wrong on a British historic motorcycle).  We also supply each grease nipple with our high quality red fibre washer (sold seperately  as Item 0097), which is both very hard and the correct slim diameter - so looks correct when fitted.

These types of small straight nipples were normally fitted on most Norton single cylinder models - commonly to wheel hubs and girder fork blades, or other areas where a straight nipple did not give good access, as per photographs.  As many original grease nipples lock up and stop working with age, replacing with these is practical - and is one of those small touches that give your a restoration a nice detail touch
