Product Name
Permabond Antiseize 1-Pound bottle with brush, rapid-drying chemical & heat-resistant brush-on compound
Brief Description
Permabond Antiseize is a superior grade assembly compound and high-pressure lubricant. This high-quality aluminum, copper, and graphite-based formula is designed to protect metal parts under extreme heat, pressure, and contaminating conditions up to 2000°F (1095°C). It effectively prevents seizing, galling, cold welding, rust, and corrosion, while reducing friction and facilitating easier assembly and disassembly.
Popular Applications & Uses
- Threaded fasteners, bolts, nuts, studs, pipes, and flanges.- Engine components, exhaust systems, and brake calipers.- Boiler and oven parts.- Jet engines and industrial turbines.- Pumps, couplings, splines, and bushings.- Assemblies exposed to high temperatures and heavy contact pressures.- Preventing galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals, such as steel bolts in aluminum housings or spark plugs in aluminum cylinder heads.
Industries that Commonly Use It
- Aerospace/Defense- Automotive Service/Repair- Chemical Industry- Construction/Building Services- Energy (e.g., power generation plants, industrial turbines)- Engineering Services- Fabrication- General Manufacturing- Government & Military- Marine (especially in saltwater and offshore applications)- Metal Fabrication- Petroleum Industry, Products or Services- Transportation/Specialty Vehicle
Special and Unique Features
- Rapid-drying formulation.- Chemical and heat-resistant brush-on compound.- Superior grade assembly compound and high-pressure lubricant.- Formulated with aluminum, copper, and graphite particles.- Provides protection against rust and corrosion.- Reduces friction, ensuring constant torque/tension.- Speeds up both assembly and disassembly processes.- Prevents seizing, galling, and cold welding.- Retards galvanic action between dissimilar metals.- Resists salt water corrosion.- Non-hardening and non-dripping consistency.- Convenient brush-top bottle for easy and even application.

- Loctite Anti-Seize Lubricants (e.g., Loctite 76764 Heavy Duty Anti-Seize Lubricant, Loctite LB 8008 C5-A Copper Based Anti-Seize Lubricant).- Permatex Anti-Seize Lubricants (e.g., Permatex Aluminum Anti-Seize, Copper Anti-Seize, Nickel Anti-Seize).- Armite Lubricants High Temperature Anti-Seize Compound.- Other specialized anti-seize compounds, including zinc-based and metal-free formulations, depending on specific application requirements.
Comparison Note
Permabond Antiseize stands out as a multi-metal formulation (aluminum, copper, graphite) offering broad compatibility and exceptional high-temperature resistance up to 2000°F (1095°C). While competitors like Loctite and Permatex provide various anti-seize compounds (aluminum, copper, nickel, metal-free), Permabond Antiseize's specific blend is engineered to deliver comprehensive protection against seizing, galling, and corrosion, and to effectively retard galvanic action across a wide array of metal types and under extreme operating conditions. The inclusion of a brush in the 1-pound bottle facilitates convenient and even application, making it ideal for extensive industrial and automotive maintenance tasks.
