Grease for brake caliper pins

[ninjababez]

just learn from my mistakes no need to experiment w/ other lubes. just use silicone grease on the pins and be done w/ it. the pins have very little load on them anyway. look at the pic of my 13 year old pins, there's no wear on them

I have yet to open my guide pins that i recently "relubed" using the wurth paste bro. Sabay ko na sa cleaning baka maya umaga or after ko maka order ng tama replacement. Btw bro yun na mention mo na flaky yun paste, was it stuck ba? Di pala ako na order ng friend ko sa lazada, so baka mga 1 week pa bago ko magawa both my current car and sa swift ng boss ko.
Thanks

bro the pins didn't get stuck w/ the wurth. actually the wurth brake paste is a metal-filled anti-seize paste so it definitely won't seize the pins, but yes it did become flaky so it might have impeded the movement a little bit. it's definitely not the right product for the pins. stupid me

Was planning on using that exact brake lubricant. But, upon researching, synthetic base yung Bendix, and even if its compatible sa metal to rubber, long term effect is bloating pa din ng rubber boots. I have no proof that it would. Just also reading "first hand" comments and experience on a international forum and a Youtube comments. Besides, easily available naman yung Dynatex, yun na lang. Instead of experimenting on lubes. Yun na din ginamit ko on the brake pads, instead of copper grease/anti seize, as per recommendation ng co-tsikoteer, yapoy.

yep tama ang logic ni bugoys. synthetic base oils can still damage some types of "rubbers" over the long-term. but plain silicone grease isn't the ideal lube for the shims, tabs, etc.

as i've said the pins are just "guide" pins. there's very little friction and very little loads. so there's no need for heavy-duty lubricants. kayang-kaya na ng silicone grease, which is also the safest to use as far the the rubber boot goes

Silicone compound ( much thicker) can be used on brake shims. The purpose is to prevent the parts from sticking together. Since silicone can withstand high temp as produced in braking, its the ideal to use as anti seize.

What im looking for is the specific red rubber grease!

Dynatex yata yun kuya.. hindi po dynamite.. kendi po yun na may tsokolate sa loob

actually silicones are only good for around 200 C. under intense braking like descending baguio i'm pretty sure the pads will exceed 200

if you read any proper repair manual they recommend silicone grease on the pins, but recommend a metal-filled anti-seize on the shims, tabs, etc. the reason is even if you boil off the liquid part due to extreme heat the metal powders will still provide anti-seize qualities

same goes for general anti-seize applications like for bolts and such. plain silicone just isn't used as a general anti-seize.

and silicone also tends to "creep" that's why you shouldn't put it near brake pads and rotors

I'm also using Dynatex for pins, so far ok pa naman. Yung butas nga yung lumaki and not the caliper pin that worn out, which causes toktok sound when braking at slow speed. solution - i wrapped the pin with a paper thin brass shim 0.005 inch thick, and used this dynatex, success.
