[Amps] Roller Inductor Lubrication

[Dr. William J. Schmidt, II]

Most replies have offered solutions to your problem that involve greases.
My suggestion is that you polish the mating surfaces with a cloth wheel to
nice slippery shine... and therefore make the conductivity issue/ heating
(dripping grease)/ dust gathering medium/ etc........ a non-issue.

Sincerely,

Dr. William J. Schmidt, II  K9HZ
