It is a Teflon based lubricant available as an aerosol or grease. The problem seems to be that it is not widely available except at dealers or an industrial supplier like McMaster-Carr. Krytox is very expensive, $35 USD for a 2-oz tube or $100 USD for a 8-oz tube.
I use Super-lube aerosol and grease which is a Teflon filled synthetic grease. A good quality silicone grease or aerosol should also work as well.
Lowe's Home Center carries DuPont™ Pure Silicone with KRYTOX® PTFE.
