Park Tool ASC-1 Anti Sieze Compound

I like the easy to squeeze tube, and the silver color looks nice on my parts. It does it's job of not letting things seize. I used this on my nipples and spokes to build some wheels, and it's been great so far. The tube is durable and holds the compound without making a mess. It's easy to squeeze just the right dab onto your piece, making assembly a dream come true. Where would I be without this stuff? Probably using honey and riding a sticky, sweet bike.

Got this for my Ti bike and parts. Works great and prevents alot of noise that can often come from Ti rubbing on other metals.

Good product; does the job.
Park doesn't put their name on a "bad" product. Only way to get a better product is to buy metal specific anti-seize products... and why? In cycling you don't need to have multiple types of anti-seize.

Pros: Good consistency
Works on multiple dissimilar metals
Stays mixed; no separating

Cons: None

Build a bike right and use this if you need to. Otherwise, you'll get problems in the long run. Why create future frustration? Doesn't cost much for the insurance it provides.

Save your Bits

A must have for any toolkit.

Great for solving little creaks that emerge from riding in wet weather all the time.

Oh yes, and there is the Anti-Sieze component for your titanium bolts.

Pros: Useful and no expiry date

Cons: My buddy won't buy his own tube and keeps borrowing it.

It's a good antiseize, and it's nice to get it in a tube so I can just blop it onto the offending bolt/seatpost/other random immovable object.
I've been slowly working my way through a tube, and after a year and a half I've still got over half the tube left.

Cons: It tends to separate, so if you want to use it after it's been on the shelf for a couple of months you need to knead the tube for a while to remix it.

Learn to love to be messy

Great stuff, doesn't prevent seizures so well if you put too thin a coating though. Embrace messiness with it and it should see you through.

Works as Advertised

My cranks come apart easily.
Bolts and screws torque down and are removed smoothly.
Stays in place when applied. So far has been chemically neutral in every area I have used it.
Even cleat screws come out easy.

Pros: Works.

Cons: Small amount of oil separates from paste and can be messy if you are not aware that it is there.

Excellent Park Tool product

Use on metal to metal contacts like seatpost to seattube to prevent siezing. Smear on, stays in place. Thin layer is all that is needed.

Great product

I used this product throughout my bike. I have taken my bike apart a few time to do maintenance or replace with new parts, and all the parts that had anti sieze compound was easily removed. It also made installation of part a little easier.

Great product!
