Tonearm pivot lube


Does anyone know if it is a good idea to lubricate tonearm pivot points? If so then what should a person use?

Dear 80Stech: +++++ " There does not appear to be lube on the pivots but I think I might try a very small amount of " +++++

why do you want to do it?. I don't know all the tonearms out there ( vintage or today ones ) but I know several and in no one I find/found nothing like you ask on the pivot bearing ( oil damping is other subject ) and I assume yours does not needs. My advise is that you leave it in " peace " about before you can/could infringe some kind of damage to the tonearm, things are that IMHO the pivot/bearing is the more delicate part on a tonearm.

Btw, do yu read something about or some one told you about?

Regards and enjoy the music.
