What lube / grease should I use on my linear bearing tracks?

What Lube / grease should I use on my leadscrews?

Im looking for the home depot / canadian tire solution.

Thank you for your time,

For my leadscrews I use just plain old lithium grease. A little dab does the trick.

where do i get that stuff :)

If its not at HD or Lowes, then try an auto parts store. Shouldn't cost more than a couple of bucks...at least in todays dollars.;)

What kind of nuts are you using on your lead screw and what kind of linear slides, because a lot of both don't need anything and will actually hurt them, namely attracting dust and creating friction and blockage.

bearing is vxb 20mm pillow block and thk slide track or something

acme 1/2 10 2 rod with delrin nuts.

You don't need any lube on those. If you did you would gunk them up. Delrin is a teflon type of material and is slippery on it's own.
