A molybdenum disulphide-loaded grease in small quantity should be fine and give long life. You don't need high temperature or high pressure performance, just something which sticks around. The lubriplate 'stays where you put it' white grease would be a good choice too.


The Jackson ball drives rely on viscous drag to work, and their stiff feel like a camera lens movement is a give-away that some grade of kilopoise is involved.
