Kreatos LGP 20
Z-Axis and Lead Screw Grease
The standard Z-axis grease. Lithium-based with PTFE for smoother movement and quieter operation on lead screws and trapezoidal threads. The grease that goes on most 3D printer Z-axes that are not running synthetic.
What it is
LGP 20 is the everyday Z-axis grease. NLGI 2 consistency gives it body to stay on vertical screws without dripping or migrating. PTFE improves the sliding feel. Lithium soap base keeps the cost reasonable and the chemistry stable.
Best for
- 3D printer Z-axis lead screws
- Trapezoidal thread mechanisms
- Light to moderate load lead screws
- General-purpose printer maintenance
What it does well
- Stays on vertical surfaces
- PTFE smooths sliding motion
- Quiet operation on Z-axis mechanisms
- Reliable through long maintenance intervals
