Anti-seize for stainless?
Question:
Not sure I’d want to use gun oil on my brewing equipment… Not sure I’d want to use aircraft lubricant either! None of the suggestions I’ve seen so far sound "food grade."
How about Pam or olive oil?

I always thought Olive Oil was a pretty hot chick, but who’s Pam?

None of the suggestions I’ve seen so far sound "food grade." Use PTFE tape. It’s NSF cerified. Be careful not to put it in the first 2 threads though, or little pieces will wind up in the system. Where I work, we build liquid CO2 tanks for McDonalds. We use a compound called "Rector Sealant" on all pipe threads. Of course, the rednecks on the assembly line use a different term for the stuff… I don’t know where to buy it in less than 5-gallon quantities, sorry.
It’s found at many plumbing supply houses. #5 is the one I prefer. Soft set.

You might use a cream or jellied petroleum or any of a number of similar concoctions advertized on TV or found at your corner drug store. I’m Edwin

Anti-sieze is a compount that can be put on a threaded bolt, screw, fitting, etc…that will allow you to unscrew it later. If you don’t use anti-sieze on a bolt, it may rust or become "locked" into position. Loctite & Permatex are two examples.

Just a thought. Wouldn’t non-hardening teflon pipe thread compound work for "anit-seize"? It’s food grade enough to use on water pipes. Leo

GRAPHITE IN ISOPROPANOL – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Try a small aircraft shop at a local airport. (They are called FBO’s) Most light planes have SS screws, and I remember buying some A-S for my inspection plates once Can anyone recommend a good anti-seize compound for 304/316 SS? Thanks, Frank.

Try your local gun shop. Many pistols are made of stainless steel and the semi automatics use anti seize lubricants between the slides amd the frames. Todd Tilton

In a pinch I’ve used teflon tape many a time. Works good for me.

Sorry about the joke I couldn’t resist. I did think of an anti-seize compound but I’m not sure that it is available on the retail market. It’s Lubtork. If you can’t find that try going to your local auto parts store and ask them what they suggest. Mike
