Anthony 1,003 Posted February 11, 2008 Moly or LM grease should be fine I'd imagine - shouldn't use copper grease though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

welshpug 1,657 Posted February 11, 2008 Copper grease has particles of metal in it, when used in applications like these it accelerates the wear, it is not designed as a lubricant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fair point What is it supposed to be used for? Edited February 11, 2008 by skanny Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Anthony 1,003 Posted February 11, 2008 What is it supposed to be used for? It's an anti-sieze compound -used between two non-moving metal parts to stop them siezing together. Also works well on the back of brake pads to stop squealing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
