It is generally difficult to determine the correct quantity of grease when manually lubricating bearings, either using a grease gun or pump, which can result in either over- or under-greasing the bearing. 
That can negatively influence the bearing's service life and possibly result in machine breakdown. 

The SKF grease meter LAGM 1000E accurately measures grease discharge in volume or weight, in both metric (cm³ or g) and US units (US fl. oz or oz). It has a high maximum pressure of 700 bar (10 000 psi), making it ideal for use in combination with many types of grease guns and pumps. 

• Measures grease discharge in volume or weight, making conversion calculations unnecessary
• High accuracy facilitates adequate bearing lubrication, reducing the risk of over- or under-greasing
• Suitable for all SKF bearing greases of consistency classes up to NLGI 3
• An oil and grease resistant rubber sleeve protects the electronics in case of impact
• The backlit LCD displays large and clear-to-read digits, including "low battery" indication
• Small, compact and lightweight design - only 0,3 kg (0.66 lb)
• Corrosion-free aluminium housing
• Easy to install and use
