I noticed that silicone oils is recommended when rubber contact is possible. I also noticed that when mixed surfaces such as metal on plastic silicone is recommended due to the plastic safe nature of it.
after trying it on my bike jockey pullies I noticed that it seems a lot slipperier than the same application non detergent 30 and 20 weight oil.
So is there a reason silicone is a poor choice for metal on metal contact or is it just that silicone oil is more expensive vs mineral oils?
