[NJARC] FYI - Lubriplate Health Concerns

[Thomas Lee]

Hi All,

FYI - Lubriplate

....minute amounts aspirated into the lungs during ingestion may cause mild 
to severe pulmonary injury

....overexposure can cause liver abnormalities, kidney, lung and spleen 
damage in test animals.


Then again I heard the above can be held true of  big macs...

Hi Scott,
What's wrong with white lithium grease? What are the issues? Lubriplate 
always worked well for me.

Hi Everyone!

....I decided to clean out the 70 years of accumulated dust & gunk, and am 
currently cleaning the dial gearing mechanism of the hardened crud that was 
once grease. And it has me wondering- what would I be  best advised to use 
as replacement lubricant? Often for  this type thing, I use a mild wheel 
bearing grease,  but I want to make sure I use the best for this radio... I 
understand White lithium grease has issues  which make it not the choice any 
more...

Thanks!
Scott
