We shape this oiler with an extra fine point to lift and place minimal quantities of lubricant. The slender tip carries a droplet straight from the cup to the pivot jewel without spreading. When set aside on the bench, a plastic sleeve pushes over the working end to keep dust off the point.
Extra fine tip
The spade point is formed to take up a small droplet of lubricant from the well and release it the moment it touches the jewel face. The shape helps meter small amounts repeatedly without bridging to nearby bridge metal.
Black handle body
The light plastic stem gives you direct control over the placement of the point under magnification. It balances easily between the fingers so you can approach balance endstones and small train pivots without a heavy grip on the tool.
Protective plastic cap
A push-on plastic cover slips over the metal needle when the tool rests on the bench rack. It shields the tip from dust and stray particles between applications, keeping dried debris away from fresh lubricant.
Care at the bench
Wipe the point across pith wood or elder pith before dipping into the cup. Keeping the working end clean stops old lubricant films from altering the way the next drop gathers and releases on the jewel.
