![]() I just got a used Butternut HF6V in great shape for a great price. What type of anti-sieze do I need to put between the sections of aluminum tubing ??? Is automotive anti-sieze OK ??? I don't think that it is electrically conductive. Do I need something like electricians use when they connect the aluminum service entrance cable to the breaker box ??? I think that stuff is called Penetrox. Is something like that available at Home Depot ??? Piggy-backing off this thread, please: When I was an EMI technician some years ago, we used conductive anti-seize on (most) hardware that was in a conductive path, such as grounding straps. I was surprised to discover that some/most anti-seize is non-conductive; you can daub some kinds on the benchtop and stick ohmmeter probes in it -- nothing happens. I figured with its metal content, surely it would all be conductive, but not so. I have no idea what implications this has for the OP's Butternut and would welcome comments. |
