Ever have someone tell you the fitting you wanted doesn’t exist?

M6x1.0 to 1/8” npt to relocate three grease nipples out from under a cover plate that’s a pain to remove so maybe the bearings might occasionally get some grease. Easiest way to do this is to use a grease gun hose which means 1/8” npt fittings.

I’m sure these fittings already exist but our supplier never called back and we wanted the machine done by the end of the day. So a bolt with a hole down the middle welded to a union’s going to have to do the job.

Normally I’d prefer to drill out and tap the part to accept the 1/8” npt hose directly, but there wasn’t quite enough thickness in these bearing housings for that.
