Good source for a wide variety of small oil cups?

[RaisedByWolves]

Looking to add some oiling options for a small lathe and milling machine.

Size for these is obviously an issue and I don’t really care for the detention style with the ball for a variety of reasons having to do with access.

I have found 6mm threaded which will work for some areas, but I would like to see more options before committing to a plan.

Anyone have a source for small threaded or push in style cups in both straight and right angle types?

McMaster-Carr has several styles... but they are pricey.

I have bought a few off ebay before. That might be worth a look.

Or Amazon: unless you are buying a large quantity from China on eBay, many items like these on eBay are drop-shipped from Amazon.

The ones I bought from ebay were 'used but useable'... I'm too cheap to buy new...

Tried both of those sources and was met with disappointment.

The ones I was finding that were 90* were kinda tall for my use, tho they might be able to be modified to work.

I have these coming which will work in some areas, but Id like more options if possible.

I have also been known to machine oil cups out of brass...

That way you can fit it into any space necessary...

Gits company is the premier provider of oil cups and ball oilers. I've tried other brands over the years, but none have done as well as the Gits models. They aren't as cheap as they used to be. Most are in the $6.00 to $10.00 range.
