I wasn't sure where to ask but my machine (gorilla cnc) z axis bearings (4of) are difficult to get access to and they are not regular grease fittings,they look like a 3/8 x 1/4 diam brass fitting with a pin hole(facing down) ,I gather one needs a grease gun fitting that almost looks like a syringe but the tube or needle needs to be at 90 degrees.
Has camaster this type of bearing or has anyone ran accross this type of grease fitting
thanks

I attached a few photos of the bearings.
Gorilla manufacturing has not addressed the greasing issue(they recommended greasing every 40hrs) and i asked 3 times in the past 10 months ,i have a 2 year warranty which i realize now is an email venting warranty for me and to phone them you cannot get past the secretary or a tech person who is different each time and does not come back with solutions.
I bought canadian and close to home .well that was a laugh,I should have bought USA.This is a new industry and there are flyby night people but how do you spot them .
