Hello,
Need to lubricate my Dillon, it has several lubrication holes to put grease inside. Probably I need to use syringe with thick needle for that.
Does anybody know where I can get one ?

Thanks !
 
If you really want to use syringes you can usually get the ones for kids medicines free from the pharmacy.
 
Any pharmacy will have what you're looking for.

or you can take a nail or screw driver dip some oil and put it on top of the holes and let it sit.
 
I don't have a Dillion buy from what I've seen they have grease nipple which require a grease gun. Unless they also have grease holes.

Otherwise I've gotten my needles from printer ink refill kits.
 
You could always try your local vet. Works for me and they normally stock larger than doctors' offices.
 
I work in healthcare - - the hospital like syringes won't do you much good - at least not for long. The plungers react with oil based products and melt . Glass syringes would work but they are über expensive.

If you can get your mitts on a sewing machine oiler with the retractable nozzle, it should fix your issue
 
The tiny holes on my 550 are so that old grease may get out.
The grease fitting, are sothat you can attach a grease gun and pump grease in. With new grease in once you start using the press old grease seeps out of the tiny holes.
 
What model of Dillon do you have mine 650XL has grease nipples and the rest gets lubed with 10/30 auto oil, the small holes are for excess grease to get out.
 
Mine is 550, 10000 rounds old. That needle is good, but supposed to be attached to the grease gun, that usually works with huge quantity of grease. I'd like to work with some think small.
