lubrication for extreem cold?

I'm refurbishing a 2-32 and I'm planning to fly this big bird in our wave
and was wondering what type of grease would not get stiff when it gets very
cold?

Hi Gary,

Try Aerospace Lubricants. Inc. in Columbus, OH. The best grease I
think, and this is something we use in our equipment that we sell to
the U.S. Armed Forces, is Tribolube. It is extreme pressure, wide
temperature range rated grease. -80 deg. F up to 400 deg. F....that
should do the trick.

JK,

Kluber Isoflex Topas L32 is good from -60 C to 120 C. If you just need
a few ounces, I can get you some.
Mike

Try this Gary....

Google Synco Super Lube. It's also sold under the Permatex brand name and at
Radio Shack as their "Super Lube Gel"

It's clear and super slippery. Specs a

-45°F to 450°F
(-43°C to 232°C)
continuous
-50°F to +500°F
(-45°C to 260°C)
intermittent

Back when I worked at Sky Sailing, we set up the wave camp gliders by
lubing everything with regular old white lithium grease.

Thanks, Bob K.

Yep, it's a synthetic lube that I now use for everything -- wingpins,
dragpins, etc. Best lube that I have found.

For "everything", Larry? You sly dog!

I second that recommendation. It's also widely available, so that's a
plus in the convenience column. Also, it comes in a liquid base as
well, which is useful for those applications where required.
