When you shop in the lubricants, adhesives, sealants, and tapes aisle, a squeaky hinge and an industrial bearing create two very different problems. The Blaster Silicone Lubricant Spray is an aerosol intended for quick household fixes. The BEM 34-32 Industrial Lubricant is a specialty grease from KLUBER designed for demanding machine components. The right call depends on where the lubricant has to work.
Quick verdict
For general maintenance around the house or workshop, choose the Blaster silicone spray. For industrial machinery with engineered bearings, choose the BEM 34-32.

Product notes
Blaster Silicone Lubricant Spray 11 Oz. Industrial Strength
Blaster Silicone Lubricant Spray is built for general maintenance. Its higher silicone concentration is meant to deliver a clear, non-evaporating film that lasts longer, and the formula is safe and non-staining. That makes it a natural fit for indoor window panes, door hinges, sticking car doors, lawn equipment, sporting goods, and snow shovels. It can also be used on elastomers, metal, plastic, wood, rubber, vinyl, and leather, and it resists dust and dirt buildup while it stops squeaks. The reason to choose it is simple: one spray can handle a broad range of household surfaces and moving parts without leaving a stain or attracting dust and dirt. The trade-off is that its intended uses are household and general maintenance surfaces; for industrial bearings, the BEM 34-32 offers a grease format.
BEM 34-32 400g Industrial Lubricant Suitable for plain and rolling bearing
The KLUBER-branded BEM 34-32 is formulated with low base oil viscosity, which helps it keep linear guides, ball bushings, ball screws, rolling bearings, plain bearings, and small gear systems running smoothly. It is designed for applications not exposed to high vacuum, high temperatures, or aggressive media, and it is particularly suitable for bearings that operate at low temperatures and/or high speeds. It is formulated to achieve considerably lower wear rates than many PFPE-based greases in similar conditions, and it is compatible with most plastic seals and cage materials. Choose it when a machine's bearing needs a specialty grease for demanding operating conditions. The trade-off is that its application focus is industrial machine components, and for a quick household fix like a squeaky hinge it offers more than the job requires.
Final choice by use case
If the job is a quick fix around the house, the Blaster Silicone Lubricant Spray is the sensible pick at USD 6.28. If the job involves industrial machine components, the BEM 34-32 is the product to buy, despite its USD 199.95 price. Match the lubricant to the operating environment, and you will get the result you need.
