Corrosion-resistant additives allow these lubricants to withstand caustic environments, such as steel mills and power plants. Also known as thread lubricants, antiseize lubricants prevent threaded fasteners and close-fitting parts from locking together due to corrosion, contamination, or heat.

Lubricants with aluminum and with copper have good heat resistance. Lubricants with graphite have good chemical and corrosion resistance, along with excellent heat resistance. Loctite® Silver Grade Anti-Seize can be used with fine threads. Lubricants in a stick won’t run or drip.
