Recently acquired a bike with a 15mm front axle having only ridden bikes with 9mm QR axles previously.

Took the wheel off to swap tyres today and noticed that the axle was dry, on every 9mm skewered axle i've come across there has been an amount of grease applied before inserting the axle back through the hub....does this not need to be done with 15mm and 20mm axles then?
