Hi Guys,
Re: Alternative to Precision RC Product THE GREASER
Looks like THE GREASER is no longer available but the following link shows an alternative:-

The first minute shows the ABC HOBBY BEARING REFRESHER #69070 being used to clean a bearing and then it is used as a greaser.

Wow that is nice. However I can't find it in stock anywhere, all sold out.

Any ideas?

Thorvald,
Possibly none are available in the USA/Canada.
I imported one from Japan to Australia with no problems.
Please PM me if you need further details.

Or here, for $15, but not a US site.

why not just take the seal off and install the grease without the tool?

the time it takes to grease the bearing, i could have a new one installed.

For me, it just doesn't make sense to grease a bearing when you can get a good-quality brand new replacement in any size you need for $1.

some bearings come with storage grease , re greasing them flushes out storage grease and put in a good grease .
