Is the large O ring the only part you lubricate with the Krytox What, if anything, do you use on the latch pin and post?

I put a light coat on both o-rings and the post. It does not require much and lasts a long time. Mine are 3 years and about 500 fillups old and still work smoothly.

Closing resistance is reduced by also applying a small amount of lube to the cam portion (at the bottom) of the latch lever.
