Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later 4 Attachment(s)
Removed water pumps today as they need rebuilding. Thank goodness for bronze bolts and anti-seize compound.

Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later I used stainless, with anti-seize. Where can you get bronze bolts.

Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later A great point, everything that I bolt back together gets a dab of anti-seize on the threads.
I use Loctite C5-A copper base anti-seize, I do not use as much on the Model T as it lubes itself:D |
Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later Thanks for the reminder. That hidden bolt in the water pump has caused a lot of head scratching over the years. I think that Henry chuckled when he came up with that idea.

water pump 'lead hammer' in the direction with tension on the ratchet. Have not broken one yet. |
Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later I put anti-seize on EVERYTHING short of a pizza. I'm glad to see it works as intended even decades later!
|
Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later Yeah, buddy. I think my bottle of copper anti-seize is going on twenty years. Love that stuff. Like others have said, a little dab will do you.

Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later Bronze bolt info is here: You could probably use them on exhaust headers also as you can also get them in socket head cap screws.

You do know there's food grade anti seize for that? (No lie. Don't think I would eat it though, its really slimy.) |
Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later Im not familiar with anti-sieze or bronze bolts, could you explain the purpose and the advantage?

Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later Ok makes sense so do you use them on everything like body panels or just engine components?

Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later Marine grade anti-seize has nickel powder in it instead of copper. Pete

Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later F2: Bronze bolts are expensive so I used them only on bolts that you rarely remove and have a high tendency to literally corrode and seize to the adjoining metal, like exhaust headers and the infamous hidden water pump bolts.
Also use stainless plus anti seize to prevent galling. Keep in mind bronze and stainless may not have the torque strength required compared to "graded" steel hex bolts. |

when in doubt, anti-seize. |
Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later I also believe when using anti-seize torque settings have to be modified.
|
Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later There are some bolts/nuts/studs that have very specific torque values then require them to be torqued dry (as in NO lubricant). Anti-seize is great for most applications, I use it a lot. Just be aware it is not suitable for every application.

Re: Anti-Seize Compound Payback Years later Some might find this interesting. It is recommended that torque values be reduced 25%.
