I know this has been covered on here many times, but again for the most part, the information has been anecdotal. Since this is Bob Is the Oil Guy, what lubricant SHOULD be used in a ratchet to reduce wear? Should it be a regular light weight oil? A gear oil? A gear grease?
Knowing the operating conditions of a ratchet- low temperature, moderate/high pressure (at the point of tooth contact), what should we be using? Please include your rationale.
Thank you,
