I have an application which is steel balls (stainless?) with brass races. Original application used wheel bearing grease of some sort. As the years go by it dries out, gets gummy, doesn't work right. So I'm cleaning it up, and last time I did this (different assembly) I used white lithium grease. But back then I wasn't on this board. So right after putting white grease onto the one I'm doing right now, it dawned on me to ask here--is regular ole marine grease better for steel on brass, or is white lithium grease just fine?
Some amateur radio operators will recognize the application, a TenTec PTO. For others, it's a radio, used indoors, on a desk, not particularly hot. I don't think of it as high load, but I have no idea how to measure point forces.
