Molybdenum disulphide grease.
-or-
Silver-bearing grease.
Do not use the copper-laden thread protector grease
used in nuke plants on conduit. That stuff dries to a wax.
Do not use No-Ox-Id "A" or "A"-Special. It's not
a lubricant and has a low electrical conductivity.
If nothing else is available, mix Lock-Eze
powder with some non-detergent motor oil.

Subject: [Amps] Roller inductor grease?
The tunable inductor on my Henry 2 K Classic can be a little difficult to
turn, and it
makes a metal on metal "squeaking" sound. Is there any form of lubricant
which can
be used on it which will not interefere with its proper operation? Would
ordering a
new inductor be advisable? Thanks for the read guys.
