What (if any) grease is required for the angular contact bearings?
Klubber Isoflex… not sure the type I’ll look at my tube tomorrow

Yes thats it
I use syringe from hobby lobby to apply approximately 50% fill of the bearings
Ensure you wash out the preservative oil or grease. Dry thoroughly. Repack.
Preservative will dilute new grease.

Great, thanks for your help!
Just some clarification, Im replacing the angular contact bearings on the ballscrews not the spindle. Just confirming that this is the correct grease for this application.
yes it is
this is what Tormach recommended when I replaced a broken X axis Ballscrew
like I mentioned earlier - do not fill the bearing full of grease - lots of info out there on the subject
I use 50% fill
