Tire grease is used. Grease can be divided into four categories. Bearing grease: A lubricating oil formulated with low-viscosity synthetic lubricating oil and various additives such as antioxidants and anti-corrosion agents. High-temperature grease: Contains a high concentration of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) lubricating particles, with strong high-temperature resistance and pressure-bearing capacity, suitable for high-temperature and heavy-duty equipment. Lithium-based grease: Made from natural fatty acid lithium soap, thickened with medium-viscosity mineral lubricating oil or synthetic lubricating oil, or from synthetic fatty acid lithium soap, thickened with medium-viscosity mineral lubricating oil. Silicone grease: Abbreviated as silicone grease, it is made by thickening lubricating oil with silicone as the thickener.
