I'll have to look for that screw lubricant.  I have been using a Porter cable screw lube stick since  the 1970s and its almost gone. My fat butt does most of my destructive testing ffcheesy. 
Now that I have been using the wood threads for a while, I will never  go back to inserts for hardwood.  The taps are holding up fine so far.

I have used wooden threads and bolts of maple on a swift here for 12 years. One acts as a vice and the other holds the umbrella open. Works great for me.  ffsmiley
