I have my small 3-jaw in pieces for a clean - it was getting a bit sticky when operating the key.
No real surprises, just a build-up of dirt and old lubrication, it should go back together fine.
But, what to use as a lubricant for the internal bevel gears and scroll support spigot ?
This thread does not relate to the scroll/jaw interface which will be lubricated with a light oil.
The chuck seemed to have remnants of a lithium style grease.
I have seen references to using lithium grease, high pressure 'tacky' grease, high pressure moly grease and heavy way lube.
Grease seems to be used on high-performance chucks that are fitted with grease nipples.
Is there any consensus on what to use ?
