Description
Product Overview
The LUBE USA 185513 HTU-03 Standard Metering Unit is a precision resistance-type flow unit designed for intermittent (cyclic) single-line centralized lubrication systems. The HTU-03 provides an intermediate oil flow rate, making it ideal for lubrication points that require more oil than an HTU-02 but less than an HTU-0. It helps deliver accurate, balanced lubrication throughout industrial machinery, machine tools, food processing equipment, packaging machinery, manufacturing equipment, and automated production systems.
Engineered for dependable lubrication performance, the HTU-03 metering unit regulates oil flow to bearings, guideways, slides, ball screws, linear rails, and other moving machine components. Proper lubricant metering helps reduce wear, improve equipment reliability, minimize downtime, and extend machine service life.

Why This Metering Unit Matters
Proper lubrication depends on each lubrication point receiving the correct amount of oil. The HTU-03 provides an intermediate flow rate that helps fine-tune lubricant distribution where a standard HTU-02 delivers too little and an HTU-0 delivers more than needed. Balanced oil flow helps reduce premature wear while improving overall lubrication system performance.
When to Use This Metering Unit
- Replacing worn or clogged flow units
- Building or repairing centralized lubrication systems
- When an intermediate oil flow rate is required
- Preventive maintenance of industrial equipment
- Restoring proper lubrication system performance
