Is there any reason I can't just take the silicon lubricant that I have in the garage and get the job done?

Ah! I've been there - I tried using silicon lubricant along with some other short cuts and I wound up having to replace my belt with a new one. I learned that if it's not lubricated properly, the inner side of the belt becomes damaged and unusable. My belt became more and more frayed and it lost almost all of the friction ridges. This caused my motor to have to work too hard to get the belt going and it would overheat and then shut down in the middle of my work out. I now solely use the horizon Fitness silicon on my belt. It is much thicker than any other lubricant and extremely smooth. I run 20 - 25 miles per week so proper maintenance is the highest priority for me. When I damaged my belt, I had to go almost 2 weeks without my treadmill. Hope this helps! I highly recommend sticking to the Hor. Fit. Silicone lube. :-)

I am unaware of any reason that you could not use it as a normal lubricant.

Hi John, my suggestion would be to go to any hardware store and buy a tube of lubricant. It is specially made for different types of metals and it looks like vaseline. Sometimes it is tinted blue. Depending on what size of tube you get, it will probably run you anywhere from 5-10 bucks. Thank you for choosing Goedekers. If you have any questions please cal 1-888-768-1710.

No, not yet. I lubricate the threads of forcing screw/flat washers with silicone grease before every use and have had no problems.

It comes with a small bottle of silicon lubricant. More than enough to get you by far a while.

Folks please be careful using this anti-seize lubricant. Many brake caliper parts including the caliper mounts, require a thread lock compound such as Loctite. This anti-seize "lubricant" is not a substitute. Please use extreme caution!!

I wipe it down well and let it dry. Sometimes I even use an air compressor blow gun to dry iot off and more effective cleaning. There are lots of different chain lubes out there. I use Dumonde Lube. It's greasy, not dry but not a problem for me as I clean my chain every week. (I ride 100 miles a week)

Don't bother. Scoop it out, wipe it down with some paper towels, get as clean as practical. I used some Orange cleaner on the paper towel around some of the gear housing, but that was it. It isn't contaminated like having dust filings when a bearing goes. I scooped the grease into a container so I knew how much to put back in and used a similar amount.

It's hard to find the right answer when it comes to airguns and lube. Many C02 and pneumatics have seals or plungers made of a rubber that breaks down if the wrong oil is used. Silicone is excellent for rubber parts, but not for metal to metal. So you can use a teeny bit of this on the tip of the CO2 cartridge to help seal it and prevent the seal from drying out, but that's the only place I'd put it. This stuff is way too expensive for that, so unless you have 100 guns I'd pass and get some for $5, like Crosman pellgunoil and/or rmcoil, or transmission fluid...

If you are referring to the pump lubrication i would say no. You need a hydraulic fluid, like Wagner's Hydraulic Fluid. Or Graco's Pump armor both are pretty good

I usually try to use 20% of the total oil capacity with this lubricant, will not hurt anything! been using this way for over 15 years,

It appears to be a real Kitchen Aid part. That said, its a quart can of grease. I suspect automotive undercarriage lube would work just fine. I didn't have any of than on hand.

I have been using this air tool since the day it arrived on cars, trucks, small engines and heavy duty vehicles. The ONLY lube I use in it is the standard air tool oil in the squeeze bottle. Never had any problems and sure I won't either. The only time I will use lithium grease is when taking a broken air tool apart just to grease the inside parts. I use an air compressor on most of my air tools but also run nitrogen when using the EXACT SAME air tools from home, at the race track. Still no problems.

You can but three best option would be a lubricant that goes on wet, then dries. A good choice would be Tuf-glide.

A silicone product would be the best lubricant/protectant for the application, given that the isolator is made of rubber or plastic, and this is one of the best silicones for automotive applications.

Silicone based lubricant. I used in the whirly jets of my hot tub and it has done great.

I suspect it has a little dirt or grit between the two ramp pieces. You may be able to flush it out by running some water in the area between the inner and outer ramp. I would not use any kind of lubricant (oil) because it will just become a dirt magnet and will eventually make things worse.
