Full details

FAQs

Is this spout compatible with oil cans from brands other than Wesco?

This spout is designed as a direct replacement for Wesco oil cans. While it may fit other brands with similar threading, compatibility is not guaranteed. It is best used with compatible Wesco models.

How long is the Wesco 05 Spare Flex Braid Spout?

The spout is 250mm, which is approximately 10 inches, in length.

Can this spout be used with different types of oil?

Yes, the spout is generally suitable for various types of lubricating oils typically dispensed from an oilcan. However, extremely viscous or non-standard fluids may affect flow and flexibility.

How do I clean the flexible spout?

Wipe the exterior with a cloth. For internal cleaning, you can flush it with a mild solvent or degreaser and then rinse with warm water. Ensure it is completely dry before use.

What makes the braided design beneficial?

The braided design allows the spout to be bent and maneuvered easily, enabling precise oil application to hard-to-reach or awkward locations without kinking or restricting oil flow.

What should I do if the spout cracks?

If the spout cracks, it should be replaced immediately to prevent oil leakage and ensure proper functionality. It indicates wear and tear and needs a replacement part.

Troubleshooting

Spout does not fit the oilcan.

Verify that you are using a compatible Wesco oilcan model. Check for any debris in the oilcan's threaded opening and on the spout's threads.

Oil flow is restricted or blocked.

Ensure the spout is clean and free of debris. Check that the oilcan itself is not the source of the blockage. Try flushing the spout with a mild solvent.

Spout is leaking around the base.

Ensure the spout is screwed on tightly to the oilcan. If the seal is compromised, you may need to replace the spout.

Spout material seems excessively stiff.

Allow the spout to warm up to room temperature if it has been stored in a cold environment. Extreme cold can temporarily reduce flexibility.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Restores functionality to your oilcan.
  • Flexible design allows access to difficult areas.
  • Durable materials ensure longevity.
  • A precise fit for compatible Wesco oilcans.
  • A cost-effective solution compared to replacing the entire oilcan.

Cons

  • Specifically designed for Wesco oilcans, may not fit other brands.
  • Requires manual attachment, adding a minor step to setup.
  • The braided material, while flexible, could potentially fray over very long-term, intensive use.
  • Not suitable for high-pressure applications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To attach the Wesco 05 Spare Flex Braid Spout, unscrew the existing spout from your compatible Wesco oilcan. Screw the new 250mm flex braid spout onto the oilcan's threaded opening, ensuring a snug fit. Do not overtighten.

Compatibility: This spout is specifically designed as a replacement part for Wesco oilcans. While its threading may resemble other standard oilcan spouts, compatibility with non-Wesco brands is not guaranteed and should be verified by the user.

Care: After each use, wipe any excess oil from the spout with a clean cloth. Periodically, especially if using thicker oils or experiencing reduced flow, you can flush the spout with a mild solvent or degreaser, followed by warm water. Ensure the spout is completely dry before reattaching it to the oilcan or storing it to prevent internal corrosion or buildup.
