Antique oiler - this is panel mounted pressure oiler which is set up for 2 oil lines. The first about 1/4 of travel of the plunger opens a valve, then the rest of the stroke injects oil. The filler cap is tethered to the oiler using a small 'ball-chain'. The knobs are finely knurled and overall it is quite well made! It appears that the oulets are set up for 1/8" flare fittings. Mounts to the panel with 10-32 nuts and studs into the oiler flange. the glass measures 2" in diameter and 2 3/8" long. It weighs about 1 1/2 pounds and is I believe it is chrome plated brass, however the plunger shaft is mildly magnetic - possible a grade of stainless? It is dirty and a bit greasy, but seems to be easy to disassemble and will come apart easily for cleaning. The chrome plating is in very good shape and will easily polish. This will look great cleaned up. I do not know what this was used for, probably equipment oiling in a factory, or stationary steam or gas engine, or possibly in power generation.
