Dave, Hypo oilers with a variety of i.d. tips are available from the supplier listed below. I know that some of them come with a 3 in. long needle tip. I haven't ordered anything since 2007, but they are probably still in business, and they sold me a small quantity (still using them). Gaunt Industries, Inc. ( Precision Hypodermic Tool Specialists) 9828 Franklin Ave. Franklin Park, IL 60131 Ph. 847-671-0776 WWW.GAUNTINDUSTRIES.COM Hope this is helpful.

It is starting to leak around the collar so I have been looking for a new one. All that I find from the suppliers have 1 inch needles, maybe 2 inches. I have even searched online specialty suppliers and can't find anything. Why should it be so hard to to find one with a long needle? Actually between 4 and 5 inches would be ideal. If you are making an application to drop action hammer centers for example, what does everyone use if not one of these?
