I have one of these, and it works OK for 1/2" pipe, of OK for 3/4" pipe, and I've never tried anything bigger. Don't forget you also need a big vise with the proper jaws to hold the pipe. The threads

I have always wondered: How much greasing to you have to do to make it worthwhile to buy and use an air-powered grease gun? I mean, it usually takes me only a few seconds to do a typical grease nippl

That's not really the safety valve- its purpose is to bleed out the pressure in the line from the pump to the tank (there is a check valve at the tank entrance to keep the tank air from escaping). It
