Default grease for slidepins

I just wanted to see what kind of grease I should use for slide pins on disc brakes?
Not sure if wheel bearing grease is useable and local store doesn't have brake caliper grease.

Yes, hi-temp bearing grease is fine.

I find bearing grease can't take the heat too long - I use this, have for years.

Permatex

^^ I recommend using that as well.



That Permatex synthetic grease lasts alot longer than bearing grease does. They also sell that same Permatex grease at autoparts stores in those little packets usually up at the counter for smaller jobs.
