Anti-Seize Compound, High Temperature
GE Company Design Engineering and Materials Engineering has evaluated Fel-Pro C-102, Nickel-Ease,
N5000 (Fel Pro products) and Teutonic Power Tool’s 0505 as acceptable anti-seize compounds. Although
the four compounds listed above are recommended, use of any other anti-seize compounds is acceptable
provided they meet the guidelines given in Table 2-3.
A number of other commercially available compounds have been considered as replacements. However,
many have low melting point elements such as aluminum, copper, or cadmium added in quantities that
are detrimental to the mechanical properties of nickel and cobalt based alloys used in gas turbine parts
(Reference 1). Therefore, the use of anti-seize compounds that contain any of these added low melting
point elements is not recommended.
