Purpose:
Tool for lubricating LM8UU bearings with a 85g tube Super Synco Lube DE21030 synthetic grease and a screw cap.
Are you looking for the same tool with screw cap for the original prusa grease tube? Look here: https://www.prusaprinters.org/de/prints/120081-prusa-lubricant-lm8uu-adaptor-with-screw-cap
If you need the same tool for 10mm bearings in normal and long length, you can find it here: https://www.printables.com/de/model/712337-lubricant-lm10uu-and-lm10luu-adaptor-for-super-syn
Added a second version on demand.
Version 1 is stil the old one with small bore holes.
Version 2 has short slots. This means that less pressure has to be exerted on the tube when lubricating the bearing.

I tried to link the model from ri3del with the official remix link, but it doesn't work. For this reason both references are listed on this position.
I combined the needle with the base and modified slightly the inner thread of the injector for a better fit on the tube.
Handling Instruction from David Honza:
Remove all thin strings before first use!
Screw the printed tool on the Prusa Lubricant tube, carefully put the bearing on and turn it counterclockwise until you feel a slight resistance. Then press the tube and watch the tip of the tool for grease leak. Once the grease starts leaking, the bearing is lubricated sufficiently.
