Instead of the adjustable tension coupler, I have been wanting to try one of these:

Any experience with these lock and release types?

It works but it's too long to get onto all the zerks on my plane.

I use one on my grease gun. I really like it. There are a couple of zerks in the nose wheel well you cannot use it on, but I bought their accessory kit and the adapters make it easy to do them. The kit is very high quality.

I use one.    They're very handy in many cases.    It makes a lot of the zerks much easier to grease.

I always find and clean all zerks on one gear leg before greasing any of them, then I start at the top and grease my way down--my arm stays cleaner by not rubbing across already-greased zerks. The nose gear has 8 fittings, each main leg has 11. Unless I have it backwards . . . But it's definitely 8 and 11.

No but I might try one
