Re: laptop hinges lubrication
iirc they are lubricated for life from the factory. you could add grease to ones with exposed guts i guess.sigpic

Re: laptop hinges lubrication
I don't think they're meant to be lubricated - they rely on a certain amount of in-built friction to keep the lid/screen at the angle you open it to.System: HP xw6600 Workstation, 650W PSU | 2x Intel Xeon Quad E5440 @2.83GHz | 8x 1GB FB-DDR2 @ 667MHz | Kingston/Intel X25-M 160GB SSD | 2x 1TB Spinpoint F3, RAID0 | 1x 1TB Spinpoint F3, backup | ATI FireGL V7700 512MB | Sony Optiarc DVD +/-RW | Win 7 Ultimate x64 | 2x Dell UltraSharp U2410f | Dell E248WFPComment

Re: laptop hinges lubrication
Ditto, IMO laptop hinges should never be lubed or your screen will go impotent.Comment

Re: laptop hinges lubrication
they do have lube, actually. not very much, just enough to make the motion smooth.sigpic

Re: laptop hinges lubrication
aaahhhhh lube......
But I disagree with you ratty - I think it's the specific materials used (nylon maybe?) that create a 'controlled friction'.System: HP xw6600 Workstation, 650W PSU | 2x Intel Xeon Quad E5440 @2.83GHz | 8x 1GB FB-DDR2 @ 667MHz | Kingston/Intel X25-M 160GB SSD | 2x 1TB Spinpoint F3, RAID0 | 1x 1TB Spinpoint F3, backup | ATI FireGL V7700 512MB | Sony Optiarc DVD +/-RW | Win 7 Ultimate x64 | 2x Dell UltraSharp U2410f | Dell E248WFPComment

Re: laptop hinges lubrication
Lube, not lube.
Guess what. They aren't all the same.
Some do, some don't.
.
Same with how they achieve lid friction.
They aren't all the same for that.
I've even seen them with stacked friction discs and a belleville spring like a clutch-pack.

To all the members here...
Let me tell you a little bit about what happened to my laptop (MSI GF63 THIN 11UCX model: MS-16R6) that “maybe” you know how to solve this problem.
So before this problem happened, my laptop was running smoothly. When I wanted to restart my laptop, it looked fine at first. But after I waited for this restart process to take a long time, until finally I panicked (because the restart process did not finish plus the laptop screen only showed a black screen), I immediately pressed and held the power button to force the laptop to turn off. But... -
