Park Tool ASC-1 Anti-Seize Compound

works fine. Not really sure how to review anti-seize lube. haha. If you dont notice it then its doing its job and I havent noticed it at all.

Have you ever seen a weight weenie who likes 21 pound full suspension mountain bikes or 11 pound road bikes, install titanium bolts into an aluminum or carbon fiber frame to save 30 grams on the overall weight of the bike? Or even worse, install a titanium bolt into a titanium frame ? (not recommended even with anti-seize compound) I have, and unfortunately I have also seen the damage done when someone tries to forcefully extract the same seized titanium nut or bolt a year later, which then has to be drilled out or in some cases can even ruin the frame. That is where anti-seize compound comes in. And Park Tools formulation is just as good if not better than any generic compound you buy at an auto store. I have no idea what the exact elements are in this Park Tools lube but I would not be surprised if it was partially Moly-50 with some zinc added for best protection with aluminum and titanium. (which also would work equally well with carbon fiber). At any rate, this lube works well. Very nice to have for bottom brackets on my titanium hardtail and for bolt hardware. I have been using this lube for multiple rebuilds over the last 15 years roughly and this has saved my butt from galled, corroded and seized components on more than one occasion. In my book, that makes it five stars!

Bought this to ensure that I can easily undo nuts/bolts in my new bike. These sellers are so cheap, the bike came without any grease at all and I farted all over just get the dang bottom bracket out.

Item works very well as described! Makes removing pedals a lot easier.

What can you say about anti-seize? This stuff isn’t so great to get on you hands but if you put it on the threads of fittings being attached to titanium bicycles it works perfectly and stops them galling or binding.

I have a lot of titanium on my mid school ride from my former Factory Crupi days. Titanium on titanium is instant gall (If you didn’t know) and titanium on chromoly or chromoly on aluminum is a galvanic corrosion nightmare. This stuff is a life saver! IMO Park Tool is the industry reference.

Good quality product.

Its just what I needed

I use it when I install parts and I have not had a problem yet.

This is pretty good stuff. I always keep this, or a can of Titanium Grease in my trunk. I gave this four stars because it is very industrial, and it can be pretty messy when used on anything in the house. Great stuff though!
