Anti-seize compound is pretty common for threading aluminum and steel together, such as spark plugs. VG6 recommends using anti-seize compound when attaching their steel / stainless steel flash hiders and muzzle brakes to threaded barrels using crush washers. I always try to use some oil or grease there, but anti-seize compound seems alright.

I regularly use whatever grease I have on hand as "antisieze" in lower demand applications (eg not high temp or extreme conditions). Might not 

There is no reason to use more anti-seize than absolutely necessary on the threads you are coating. Additional anti-seize does not offer any more corrosion protection and is simply a waste of product. Too much anti-seize applied to the threads of a bolt. Reduce torque values by 25% to 30% This is commonly forgotten and extremely important.

The anti seize is not sticky like grease, so it doesn't atract dirt. When I cleaned the pins the old nickel anti seize and some brake dust was the only thing on the pins. I cleaned them with Marine Clean and steel wool, wire brushed the threads clean then coated with new anti seize and reinstalled. G Guest Discussion Starter · #6 · Jan 25, 2007

Jul 18,  · Anytime you apply anti-sieze, or any thread lubricant, it affects the torque. Clean the threads out with a wire brush. Also, before you install the new ones, put something in the

There are a few reasons for this. Copper grease is an anti seize compound, so whilst technically it isn’t a lubricant, it’s often used for these purposes. Using Copper Grease is a sure way to seize up the slider pins –When I first started doing this type of thing many years ago, many people were using copper grease fortheir entire brakes

Antiseize is nothing more than fine metal flakes in a grease. The problem with mixing grease and antiseize is no more or less than the problem 

Dielectric grease is a moisture barrier grease for electrical connections. Anti Seize is a grease compound (there are numerous variations) used to prevent assemblies from seizing to allow disassembly at some point in the future. 15 step1makeart • 3 yr. ago They are different formulations developed for different applications.

Sep 23,  · 3. You have it basically backwards. Anti seize is designed for threaded fixing systems and non moving parts. Telling someone to avoid threads with anti seize is like saying

As you ’ ll see, the choice between grease and anti-seize depends upon factors such as load, rush, and temperature . Anti-seize Formulations. Anti-seize products are used

I've never heard of putting grease on threads. On axles, wheel bearings etc., yes, but not threads. Use anti sieze on threaded fasteners except 

The secondary point: regular grease does just fine in most applications. There are valid places to use anti-seize on a bike, but not many.

Can I use dielectric grease instead of anti seize? No, they are not the same thing. Dielectric grease is a moisture barrier grease for electrical connections. Anti Seize is a grease compound (there are numerous variations) used to prevent assemblies from seizing to allow disassembly at some point in the future.

Mike. Participant. I typically apply grease to that area, a using a small brush to paint a light layer around the hub nosing and then a very thin "film" on the rotor/drum hub area. You also want to clean up the backsides of the rims, the hub contact surface, and apply a film on that as well.

NICKEL-GRAF™: Blend of nickel and graphite in a petroleum base grease 2600°F. Recommended when very different metals are used together such as brass and steel 

There are many kinds of anti-seize including kinds that are designed to work best with stainless steels to prevent galling, mitigation of 

Really any grease is fine. You can use anti seize compounds interchangeably with grease on threads, but the reverse isn't true. Anti seize
