Binding Grease Revisited

[Wild4umlauts]

Yes, I did search and found that out of the 4 times this question has been asked there hasn't been one straight-forward clear answer given.

I just ran out of the "official" Tyrolia binding grease I had. With all the mags on here that do their own mounts you'd think that someone has a recommendation of a specific off-the-shelf grease (like from Home Depot or the local hardware store) that would work well.

The white lithium stuff I've got sitting in the garage is not the stuff. The black crap I use to grease my garage door opener chain and tracks is not the stuff.

What's the right stuff?

I love Phil Wood green tube grease for everything, but I'd love to hear what other people use!

Great question - I hate industry specific crap if its not needed (ski grease, bike grease, ball grease, etc.)

I have Phil Wood grease. He died recently, but his grease lives on.

I would think plastic compatible is the main attribute for a ski grease.
Bike parts have plastic shit in the deraileurs, shifters, etc. and Phil Wood has never let me down there.

Good for non-Tech bindings too? --

Seems pretty hard to beat a grease that is designed for bindings, as G3 claims. I'm going to have to get some of that to try it out.

Yep. Phil woods $11
G3 ski greas $30

I’m still using bike derailleur grease. Works great!

I use SuperLube Synthetic Grease in a 3 OZ. tube on all my tech bindings because it's good for cold temperatures, safe for plastics and resists washing out with water. It uses PTFE and silicone. Plus it's widely available and under $10. It's also clear and food safe so it finds a lot of other uses around the home and shop:
