Sherman,
Never Seize and Anti-Seize are basically the same thing. Just made by
different companies.
There are different types of compounding that goes inside depending
upon the temperature range.
Low temp, up to about 1000 degrees F, is an aluminium-graphite
compound. Silvery grey in color. Perfect for just about every place on a
Triumph.
Medium temp, up to about 1800 degrees F, is a copper based
compound. Coppery in color. Good for exhaust manifold studs that get
good and red.
High temp, up to about 2600 degrees F, is a nickel based compound.
Silvery in color. Used in nuclear reactors. Real good overkill in a car.
A 1 pound container will cost about $12 from an industrial supply place
like McMaster Carr or MSC.

A one pound container will last a long time, because only a small
amount is used on each fastener.
A nice benefit to using anti-seize is that bolts are tightened up without
as much rotational stress as dry fastening. The bolts stay stronger.
I have 2 containers. One at home and another where the TR3 is
currently garaged.

Hi Justin.
How is 'NEVER SEIZE' different from the standard 'Anti-Seize' that
we've
used for years?
