Built for shops, fleets, and field technicians, the 500-E accepts cartridges or bulk fill and includes a bleeder valve to prevent pressure buildup. Its combination of high pressure and an 18\" whip hose helps you reach fittings on vehicles, machinery, and equipment without cumbersome repositioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the 500-E produce enough force for heavy equipment fittings?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 500-E uses a lever-action mechanism tuned for high-pressure output, generating up to 10,000 psi to push grease through tight lines and clogged fittings.
