Default Upper Strut Bearing Lubrication?

Finally have the time to install the new struts and shocks on the 2008 S80 T-6. In examining the new Upper Strut Bearings (Volvo part # 31681161 aka IPD part # 120815) it appears to be a two part hard plastic assembly that rotates in use. There does not appear to be any lubrication between the two moving parts. Should there be any? If so, what lube is recommended for that application?

Thanks in advance for any insight.

Regards, Jeff

It`s a Strut "Bearing". The answer is no.
