Dishwasher rack wheel grease

Dishwasher rack wheel grease
The small wheels on dishwasher racks require special waterproof grease that can withstand hot water, detergent chemicals, and constant spray. Regular grease would wash away in minutes, so manufacturers use silicone-based or PTFE-infused lubricants that repel water. When these wheels lose their lubrication, racks become hard to pull out and can even damage the dishwasher rails. A simple re-greasing with food-safe silicone grease can make a dishwasher rack glide like new again.
