Axe+wd40+vegetable oil=good bearing lubricant?

I don't know what axe is, and wd40 is not known as a high quality, lasting lubricant. However, among the vegetable oils, Canola Oil has the very best lubricating effects. Canola Oil is so good it can replace automotive engine oil, and hydraulic fluid also. I've actually run it in a diesel engine as engine lubricant, radiator fluid, and engine fuel, all at the same time, just to test it.Axe+wd40+vegetable oil=good bearing lubricant?
who knows what ';axe'; is and vegetable oil is for cooking, not lubrication.


WD40 is not a lubricant. it is water displacement fluid. it is designed for penetrating and not a lubricant. use some type of a specific bearing grease. they are available from any auto parts house and wont cost very much. they have them in a paste type putty or a spray type. get what will do the job you need. dont try to make your own special mix, you will only have to re-do the fix later. do it right the first time!!!Axe+wd40+vegetable oil=good bearing lubricant?
Personally for bearings I use bearing grease, it is heavier and will last longer than the other ones you mentioned. Also light oils like wd40 and vegetable attract and hold dirt and other containment's which can cause premature failure of bearings.
WD-40 may have a 1000 uses but, an lubricant it is not, it's a cleaner. Why would you go through all this trouble when you can get a good proven lube from your local Walmart ?
I don't know why you would use axe and vegetable oil.


Use the wd40 or get some triflow.
