The conventional wisdom a while back was to insert teflon leaves. The
main issue is anti-squeak, not corrosion.
The better option is to go with a high pressure spray dry film
lubricant and coat the leaves prior to assembly. This has the added
benefit of repelling moisture from the steel, preventing corrosion.
I believe there's some good dry film lubricants ised in the shipping
industry... Someone on the list had a good recommendation for this a
while back.
Best,
Alan
