Molykote 44 Joystick/N64 stick grease *FREE* - U pay 4 ship

Post by s1mplehumar »

Parting out small quantities of Molykote 44 silicone grease for the lubrication of arcade joysticks, but uses not limited to arcade components -- N64 analog sticks can also be restored or prevented from premature wear. Essentially all joysticks or moving plastic parts that encounter friction are fair game for this particular grease.

Perhaps the most popular, and also the most expensive joystick lubricant, is Shin-Etsu G-40M (Sanwa grease) grease. The smallest quantities routinely sell for $30.00+ the cost of shipping: http://www.akihabarashop.jp/index.php?c ... 2f4f06a541 A superb alternative to the Shin-Etsu is Molykote 44. Both are very pure silicone greases with near identical specifications. Unlike petroleum based lubricants, silicone is safe for application on or near plastic parts.

I'd like to offer this stuff for free now as a service to the community. Please send me a PM if you're interested. I ask only that you pay for shipping the grease. :) If you're interested in larger quantities (by the lb., etc.) we can do that too.

Obviously we're going to need one of those 396 pounds tubs. I'm guessing that's a 55 gallon drum?
