Anti Seize Lubricants/Compound are mainly to prevent galling and fretting problems subject to high temperatures. The most common anti seize lubricants/compound is copper type. Copper Anti Seize also known as copper grease, copper paste or copper compound. It is for the assembly of all threaded connections subject to high temperatures. It also can be applied on spark plug threads, brakes mounting, brake pad (behind), cylinder head and exhaust manifold studs, high temperature and/or corrosive environments. It is also suitable for application to gaskets and packing. For all these applications, the products make dis-assembly possible without welding or seizure.
Benefits
Copper anti seize helps to prevent two major seizing problem which is called galling and fretting. Galling is when two metals are in contact and the friction produce heat high enought to weld the metals together. This led to the breakage or torn of the thread during tighten or loosen the nut. Fretting happened when two metals in contact experiencing oscillation and cause rupture of the material. Fretting always caused the metals to fatigue crack and decrease the fatigue strength of the materials.
Insutruction
The bulk versions should be applied by brush or finger.
