Loctite C5-A, the lube of the gods!!!

A few of you have already responded wanting to pay me, or reinburse me, or offer me something in trade for the freebie. I don't want or need anything from those who PM'd me with your address.

As I mentioned, this is a nice way of giving back to the inmates here. If there is one thing you could do for me to pay me back, it would be for you to do something nice for a stranger at some point this week without expecting anything in return.

Now if I could only keep the damned kids outta my yard!!!

Just as a follow up any samples of the food grade anti seize would be Killer!

I'm not sure how its measured but for a lack of better terms do you know the practical size of the copper base VS the lithium base?

Copper Anti-Seize is the freebie du jour-Food Grade isn't on the free menu today. We do have a food grade anti-seize so PM me with a contact name and telephone so we can talk it through.

I'm not real sure of the question regarding a copper-based vs. a lithium base. Copper is a metal, lithium is used as a soap in greases. Reasons for choosing one over the other boil down to chemical compatibility, soap compatibility, process chemicals, k factor, temperature requirements, etc., etc., etc. I am willing to talk it through with you though. Knowledge is power, and we all bring a value or specialized knowledge of some sort to the members Bayou Shooter.

CCW · May 22, 2013

Thanks Dirty. Lube samples arrived on Monday. I paid it forward twice on Sunday.

paddle007 · May 27, 2013

Thanks for the samples. Very cool. Will forward the generosity.

Got the samples in the mail today. Much appreciated. Thanks.

Received the samples today.
Many thanks for that.

Will let you know my results.
I truly appreciate it.

I have been using products like this for about 50 years but never saw a Pistol application. I did use some on the threads of a spark plug today as I have done forever.

Ritten · May 28, 2013

Got mine in today too. Thanks Chip!

bayougump · May 28, 2013

JBP-I'm not singling you out here, so please don't take it that way. This should be treated as a learning experience for all of us.

I worked for Loctite for 10 years before I learned from one of our Application Engineers that a copper based anti-seize should never be used on aluminum. Galvanic corrosion happens because copper and aluminum don't play well together.

I had been using a copper anti-seize on spark plugs since I got my first bubble tank Honda 50 mini bike back in the early 70's but no one ever told me about galvanic corrosion. Google it if you want to learn more.

All of us....use anything but a copper based thread lubricant on spark plugs threaded into aluminum heads-so say the nerds in the know.

Dirty,
I use a nickel based anti seize on my plugs. I have about 50 years experience using these products with no ill effects but I am not aware of any great application for a pistol.
Maybe you can enlighten me.
I use Mobil 1 and Dextron ATF for my pistol lubrication and it works very well.
Brand of Nickel based anti seize is Never - Seez.
