Which grease for plastic oscillator worm gears?

Recommended Posts

I'm re-greasing a gearbox and I'm worried about the grease attacking the plastic. I think the plastic is made out of nylon??, and some other parts are made out of another unknown plastic. 

 

Can anyone recommend a good grease for plastic oscillator worm gears? Preferably one that's synthetic for long life and doesn't have oil separation issues, and most importantly, compatible with plastic.

I wouldn’t worry about attacking the parts with any good grease. Clean up your gears and grease them   
 

No grease is worse than ordinary grease👌

I usually use some of that red and tacky stuff just heavy duty since I run the absolute crap out of my plastic fans. Especially on oscillating
