Could you give us a clue to what you are referring to? Even looking at
the mangled home owners hub history, all the original thread structure
has been lost, so it's no clear.

I think he is looking for the grease that you should put on
the sds drill bit 'splines' as you slide it into the drill.
I just use CV joint grease. You should be able to blag some
from a friendly garage.



I keep a small tube like:

in the drill case. It only requires very occasional use on a drill bit
or chisel shank.
