    Question: Can anti-seize be used as a grease? :notsure:
    I have a shaft that wheels go on@ the end of the shaft is a spline for a gear.
    Do I just just put anti-seize on the spline and grease the shaft?
    You know that anti-seize is going to go everywhere anyway! :annoyed:

    anti-seize can be used as a grease. It starts off as a grease base with either graphite or moly added to it. There maybe better greases depended if its exposed to high heat or wet environments.

    I use it only in high-heat situations, like plugs and exhaust manifolds.
    I've read that, since its a lubricant as well, it can cause over-torquing in other areas
    where rust and corrosion are not as problematic.
