Allows for Smoothest Movement along the Z-axis
Magnalube-G PTFE Grease is a high-temp grease that will outlast conventional grease lubricants. Magnalube-G is a non-soap elastomer/PTFE lubricating grease formulated with the highest quality raw materials. Magnalube-G has a unique formula that molecularly binds PTFE with polyurea for superior performance in a wide range of applications. The grease will prevent breakdowns, and extend operating intervals in most cases. It is fortified with a number of proprietary additives that inhibit rust and oxidation as well as giving added resistance to extreme pressure. Magnalube-G has a dropping point of well over 500°F. It performs well in harsh environments, especially when users want to avoid migration and water washout. This is a superb all-purpose grease, and is often found to solve problems that other greases cannot.
Do NOT use on the smooth axis rods.

This Machine Grease is used for lubricating the trapezoidal lead screw on your printer, and ensuring smooth movements along the Z-axis. The grease is applied as a thick green paste, and is contained within a leak and burst-free container. The tube used to contain the grease has been constructed with aluminum and filled to an optimal weight of 0.75 ounces (21.25 grams). The container is made from a durable material, designed to eliminate leakage or bursting. The tube is ideal for precise applications of Magnalube grease, since the needle tip dispenser makes it quick & easy to apply the exact amount of grease required in those tight, hard to reach spots. This makes it a great addition to your 3D Printing workflow.
