Stan, I wasnt aware that OEP quit production, I used to buy many some years ago.

Another place to check is Cardwell Condenser who is now part of Viking and they still make the old Johnson 229 series..

Hi Carl,

MFJ said they use SAF-T-EZE anti-seize.

Oren Elliot no longer makes roller inductors. They said they stopped selling them to MFJ around 20 years ago and MFJ makes their own roller inductors now.

Why not contact MFJ who builds theirs as well as Oren Elliot Products plus Multi Tech Industries who builds "big" ones.Carl----- Original Message ----- From: "Stan Gammons" <s_gammons@charter.net>To: <amps@contesting.com>Sent: Sunday, July 29, 2018 11:29 PMSubject: Re: [Amps] Lube for roller inductor On 07/07/2018 01:05 PM, Bert wrote: I don't think Penetrox is a good idea for a roller inductor. As far as I know, Penetrox is only conductive if put under pressure. I would suggest one of the CAIG DeOxit products, e.g. DeOxit 5. Bert VE3NR Kind of reviving this thread since I have a roller inductor that was acting a bit flaky, so I took it out and gave it a good cleaning in my ultrasonic cleaner. No lubes left on it now and it's very clean. So, what is general consensus, DeOxit D5 is Ok to use to use on the roller? Unsure how much of a lubricant it is, but I know it's a great contact cleaner. 73 Stan KM4HQE Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/amps ---This email has been checked for viruses by AVG.https://www.avg.com
