Z - Axis Grease for lead screws is our Premium, Synthetic, Lithium based PTFE reinforced formulation grease.
Thick NGLI 2 specification - Ideal for Z axis lead screws on 3D printers
Excellent thermal stability. PTFE reduces wear and friction. Ideal for metal on metal sliding contact such as lead screws.
Resists shock loads, extends component life, reduces machine noise, reduces loading on motors
Less chance of missed steps in open loop systems
High load carrying capability
Prevents corrosion
Smoother movement makes better prints
Suitable for bearings and many applications beyond robots and 3D printing
For best results on Z axis screws make sure that surfaces are clean before applying (If heavily contaminated clean with isopropyl alcohol and dry).
For Z axis apply directly to the threads of the lead screw, a thin line running up the thread will work well. Move Z axis up and down repeatedly to ensure even coating.
Do not "overgrease" - a thin, even covering is all that is required - remove any excess to prevent fling and contamination.
