Refilling Squirt 120ml bottles

[Zimmerframe]

Trying for the most boring thread of the day award ..

Recently bought one of the 500ml "Workshop" squirt bottles. The nozzle is slightly wider and with the size it's not as easy to delicately apply a tiny amount of lube. The 120ml bottles appear to be completely sealed, but if you get some pliers you can actually remove the nozzle section and refill them :

Useful pic Zimmer, I wondered what a pair of pliers looked like.

Use a piece of tubing attached to each nozzle? Probably won't work.





edit. I completely missed the point of your post

Lubrifiant is a nice word. Up there with sparadrap, which I imagine you are familiar with.

It's supposed to show the top half of the 120mm nozzle removed But agreed, it's a bit lacking and leaves much to the imagination !

Too familiar Sparadrap, not lubricant .. though I did have a shocking experience on Amazon.fr the other day searching for Silicone Lubrificant....

It's always about sex with you isn't it @apac - you're almost as bad as that Zimmer chap.

I have the 120ml bottle and the nozzle pulls out of the bottle.i do exactly the same,refilling the 120ml from a large bottle

Is this the beginning of your 'How to breed small rodents' thread?

 

[Zimmerframe]

'How to breed with small rodents' thread?

Possibly. Due to popular demand, concerns about same (species) sex - due to covid, the general devolution of any morals we may of ever had being thrown our way by the present political "parties/parties" ? - maybe that needs generally just changing ? and obviously the daily requests from @BAMBAMODA who has been known to find himself unloved by the fairer sex for several minutes here and there - whilst still noticing many attractive rodents nearby.

Squeeze a small amount of the lube from the big bottle into a small container such as a plastic bottle top, squeeze some air out of the small bottle (with its top removed) then suck up the lube from the container. Repeat as necessary.

You missed putting the top back on the small container before sucking up the lube.

That could have confused a stupid person and Zim.

But you do learn something new every day on this forum

It explains all those stories from Accident & Emergency departments that I had previously thought apocryphal.

 

[Zimmerframe]

apocryphal

Steve's back to doing word of the day :

Thankfully not as scary as most of the interpretations from the urban dictionary !

Well done, easy win

 

[B1rdie]

Do the same with Stan’s large and small bottles you just need to unthread the caps. No tools to harm during this action.

No I didn't.
If you put the cap back on first it will be much harder for the fluid to get sucked up as the hole will be partly obstructed.

 

[2WheelsNot4]

Drill a hole in the bottom of the old bottle and glue the new bottle onto it.

Think of it as drip feed

When you next buy a multi pack of crisps don't throw away the empty packets.
Instead buy a huge bag of Lays crisps and decant the contents equally among them.

you win hands down

It’s completely pointless to save so little with it.
Eg. in the Bike-Discount.de the Squirt SQUIRT E-Bike Chain Wax 500ml is € 9.00 / 100 Milliliter and Squirt SQUIRT E-Bike Chain Wax 120ml is € 9.16 / 100 Milliliter
In addition, the Squirt SQUIRT E-Bike Chain Wax 500ml is a constant shortage.
The empty bottle can be recycled. Just throw it in the recycling bin.
Plus, when I did the same after the 3rd time, the 120ml bottle was very worn out.
