Brake adjuster lubricant

["W Goebner" <wgoebner@pacbell.net>]

What lubricant should I use to keep the sliding parts in my brake
adjusters from seizing?  The housing is cast aluminum and the screw and
sliding parts are steel I think.

 

One of the rear brake adjusters on my car was "frozen" and after heating
it in the oven to 425 degrees a few times and using a drift to loosen
the parts I finally was able to disassemble it.
