Teddy are you on the sauce again? You must be to not understand that there is NO relationship between what happens inside an internal combustion engine operating at 260 degrees Fahrenheit with rotating speeds exceeding 3200 revolutions per minuet and what happens between a hinge pin and barrel hook at ambient air temperature and rotating speeds of a maximum of 12 partial rotations per minute.
If you don't understand that then there is no place for you in this discussion.
Quite frankly any corrosion inhibiting organic or inorganic solid or liquid lubricant that will adhere to metal will work fine to lubricate a hinge pin and barrel hook. Some just more in vogue than others.
Teddy you might try spraying a little solid film lubricant inside your beloved Remington 31. It will really slick that action up.
