Engrasadores
Explanation:
En el mundo de la maquinaria y de taller se conocen como "engrasadores" y son parte de los "puntos de engrase" de la máquina. Se acopla una bomba de engrase a ellos y se inyecta la grasa con una o dos emboladas. Por cierto, no demasiada grasa, que no rebose.

Tu máquina se sunministra sin ellos.

Espero que te valga

agree  Tomás Cano Binder, BA, CT: Sí, estoy de acuerdo. Voy a usar hoy "engrasadores" en una traducción. Hasta ahora me había encontrado sólo "nipples", no "zerks". ¡Muchas gracias Raimundo!
