As mentioned above by Ivor and David, the bendix spiral thread should under no circumstances be oiled or greased. Having removed any traces of oil or greaseĀ it should however be lubricated with dry graphite powder - the stuff you're supposed to use to lubricate door locks - available from good hardware stores and Amazon - the bottle shown below can be sourced there.
