Keith;
Years ago I bought a can of dry lubricant made by Dow Corning. It's a bonded
molybdenum sulfide dry lube and it works great. I can't remember the number
on the spray can but you might do an internet search and turn up the Dow
Corning product number or a similar product by another manufacturer.

Subject: Dry Spray lubricant's?
Anyone out there know of a quality Dry spray lubrication for gears?
Here is my problem.... I have a 1/2 Yard concrete mixer that never gets
turned off.... so the big drum gear and the little countershaft gear wearout
regularly..... like one every 6 months.... what my thoughts right now are to
convert it to a belt drive as it's much less susciptable to wear but to do
that I have to completely re-engineer the machine.... ( I've already set it
up in my mind.... but don't have time right this minute )
Just thought maybe our collective knowledge might have a semi temporary
solution....
Grease doesn't work by the way as it attracts sand which wears the gears
even faster
TIA Keith
