Lubrication Question

[centralappliance]

Just wondering the best lub to use on dryer drum idlers and bearings

[JWWebster]

I use Zoomspout oil. Heat resistant, won't dissipate over time, used in all manor of HVAC applications and non flammable.

Zoomspout here too.

Royal Purple all synthetic, beats zoom 2-1.  I have found it holds up better around heat and cold than zoom.

Where do we get this magic lube. I use zoomoil also but I would like to try the royal purple synthetic.   

 Never mind, I see they have a website. It looks like most auto parts stores have it.

They send a bottle to a soldier in Iraq for every bottle purchased. Been using this instead of zoom for over a year & a half & great results.

Zoomoil also has Supco cleaner in it that dissolves contaminents including dried oil residue.

Personally I'm willing to pay a few extra dollars for a better product.
I'm going to give it a try and see how it works.

I would be willing to try some royal purple if anybody wants to send me a sample

 I just ordered 2 bottles from the ebay site for $8.50 + $5.50 shipping. I think thats a fair price and probably a lifetime supply but you can never have enough lube, right? I wonder if it's safe for your skin.

2 drops on each shaft for rollers and idler pulley each side of roller  does it all. I have never been more happy with a product since Simple Green cleaner. I have oiled old clocks on Wedgewoods & other antique stoves with turbine oil & some work some don't. Every clock I have oiled with this is working & still running a year later.
