Lubrication failures to avoid
Thank you, Bob Haller, for the text, copied below.
What other lubrication failures can we think of, and warn our neighbor? Three in one "sewing machine" oil is not used for electric motor bearings. It turns gummy and sticky after a while. Graphite is not used in the ignition locks of modern cars. It is electrically conductive, and plays hell with the resistor chip in the key. Now, for the sexual perverts to make some vaginal references. Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. WD40 turns to goo when people attempt to use it as a lubricant:( Vaseline turns to rock as it ages and is NOT A LUBRICANT!!! I had a customer one time lube the machines I serviced with vasoline, and a bunch of VCRs. I had to soak the parts he lubed on my machines with gasoline, and the customer ultimately tossed the 20 or so VCRs that had been lubed with vasoline..... the offender was replaced, he just didnt get it and probably made the same mistake at his next employeer........ |

Valeline is simply a thick mineral oil - so although not a TERRIFIC lubricant, it moist definitely IS a lubricant. What it is NOT is a grease, as it does not have any "soap" base. ANd virtually ANY lubricant will harden with age. I had a customer one time lube the machines I serviced with vasoline, and a bunch of VCRs.
