agreed. I can’t say that I’ve seen high solids lubes really keep a slick surface other than when fine moly is used like the Honda M-77. Mercedes often uses copper antiseize. While it works, it doesn’t seem particularly lubricating.My understanding of these 3200f claims is that the regular grease oil/thickener components of these super greases is still only good to the general 400 -600F range and that the ceramic/moly/teflon/whatever "marbles" components are what are left over and still present at very high temperatures. To me, it seems like dubious marketing.
I'm with dfarr67 - the old standby real silicone grease works well for enclosed pins. High moly paste for exposed to weather areas.
Silicone straight, or where necessary, with solids, seems the best bet. That’s why I just use M-77 and silicone.
