I use turbine oil for almost anything except cameras. Even for purely 
"protective" functions, such as the "linear bearings" on printers, etc.

For cameras, one has to be careful of operating temperature, and there are 
special lubes which are designed to operate properly in sub-freezing 
conditions.

Turbine oil is an electric motor grade lube oil which can be obtained from 
Ace Hardware, among other places.
