Reclosable Plastic Syringes For Lube: Source?

It's time to play Try To Stump The SF Oracle!

Anybody have any idea where one can find the reclosable plastic syringes like TW-25B comes in and Wilson Combat Ultima-Lube Oil used to come in?

I've looked everywhere I can think of and came up empty.

"Dental irrigation syringes" look good.

I get mine from my local Veterinarian. Or a good feed/farm store should have them as well.

Depends on WHERE one resides. In some States ANY syringe is thought to be dug paraphernalia.

Me too.

The intended contents make a big difference to what’s best. A thick (or even thin) grease would be difficult to dispense through a needle type applicator, but syringes can be a little tricky to fill.

Nope, guys. While I appreciate the suggestions, none of those are like the TW-25B syringe--where you can turn the end to close it. They look like this:

Whether oil or grease: You withdraw the plunger until you see the lubricant clear the "needle," then turn the end to "turn it off," so to say. (The ones in the photo above are all closed.)

Somebody must make them. And if somebody's making them, somebody's selling them.

Yep. Vet Supply.

I've just been re-using the ones I do have. I haven't found a source either. I'm not sure there is one.

And these are great for applying grease to rails and hard to reach fire control components:

Not as fancy as what you’re looking for, but I just bought a few Shooter’s Choice syringe with the grease in them. When I emptied them I used a popsicle stick to pack them with slide glide. They have a cap that goes over the dispenser tip.

Here’s a link to it at Brownell’s:

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for. I just googled "TW25B syringe" and got this result:

Those are it, except they come with TW25B in them, I believe he's looking for empty ones...

Ah, in that case, I dunno.

If you have an empty one, if you peel the label off and pull the plunger out, there's probably something to identify the manufacturer somewhere on it. The manufacturer might not sell them direct in reasonable quantities, but might be able to point you to a distributor.

For that matter, you could try just calling Mil-Comm and asking where they get them.

Krytox comes in those syringes, too.

I wasn't giving up until I found them...

White in stock, only 9 left
Mil-Comm® Precision Syringe w/ Valve (Empty) - White

Clear out of stock.
Mil-Comm® Precision Syringe w/ Valve (Empty) - Transparent

At least it gives one a better idea of how to search for them.
But this place is the only one i found.
