Title: Bearings
Post by: Jtg.73 on September 12, 2010, 06:43:07 PM
What is a good proper bearing lube for standard bearings?  Up til now I was just using whatever I had laying around the tool box.  Does anyone use ceramic bearings?   Are they worthwhile? Do ceramic bearings require different oil?

If your bearings have do not have grease in them, then use a light machine oil.I use air tool oil in my bearings. Check C. Tire or homedepot.
