What kind of grease should I use to re-lube this?
I want to provide
adequate lubrication between the plastic and steel, but I don't want
something that will hurt the plastic. I was thinking about using
dielectric grease, since it shouldn't harm plastic, won't melt out, and
isn't too messy. However, it's designed as a moisture barrier, not
really as a lubricant, I believe. Thoughts anyone?
I'd recommend Sil-Glide--a silicone gel. Safe for use with just about
anything, including rubber and nylon. Get it at an auto parts store.

Hi
Also good for improving electrical contacts on connectors. It still
isn't all that good as a lubricant but better than dry.
