where to purchase proper lube for gear drive in smPosted By Steve Mathis |
Unless you are dead-set on using the mfg. original grease, what about Super Lube? From the S.L. website:
Super Lube® Grease is a patented synthetic NLGI grade 2 heavy-duty, multipurpose lubricant with PTFE. Synthetic base fluids and the addition of PTFE micro powders combine to form a premium lubricant that provides longer life protection against friction, wear, rust and corrosion. Machinery lasts longer, downtime is reduced, and productivity is increased. Super Lube® is compatible with most other lubricants and will not run, drip, evaporate or form gummy deposits, and will not melt or separate.
Super Lube® is Food Grade, rated H-1 by the USDA and NSF for incidental food contact. It is an excellent Dielectric and operates over a temperature range from -45° to 450° F.
It has the temp range, and the PTFE (teflon).
I got a 3 oz. tube at Harbor Freight for $6 last week to relube my Atlas mount. Just a suggestion!
