I have no idea where one could buy a small zertz fitting for a bicycle hub, but I don't think they can be replaced.

I only have one bike with hubs that have the grease ports, I wish all my hubs had those, their easy to maintain.

Hmm, not entirely sure that is what it is, these ones are just little screw in plugs. I don't see a hole that would make it a real grease nipple. When I unscrew it, all that appears is a hole into the hub for the grease, no seals.
