Some petroleum based lubes or tooling lubricants can damage plastics, so stay away from those. Thread cutting oils can really break down Delrin, so try to stay natural if possible. WD 40 is good.

I assume you posted twice accidentally. Did you mean 55 pound thrust or 80?
As far as lube goes, I have tons of WD-40. Just wasn’t sure if I could’ve used it in this application. Thanks for clarifying. After about how many uses would you recommend spraying some WD-40?
