  22. Greetings to all.I've worked in the bearing trade for years and a BIG rule is don't EVER use copper products in bearings-it will kill em everytime!!!!! Use a good quality lm bearing grease,best one i use for this job is Rocol Aquqlube,clean the old crap out,the repack with new,but don't over pack-just cover rollers lightly in needle bearings,same with taper bearings in head stock.Bye
