Park Tool ASC-1 Anti-Seize Compound

I purchased this product to use on new Shimano SPD-SL pedals I was putting on my road bike. Got the idea from the Park Tool YouTube video on how to change bike pedals. Only advice I can offer is to use it sparingly. I thought I was being stingy with the amount I put on the threads and noticed that upon tightening the excess grease ended up all over my pedal cranks. Trying to clean it up is very hard and messy so apply as little as possible to get the job done.

anti cease compound do not use as grease, not for moving parts, stationary threads only. Park tool makes a good grease if that is what you need on moving parts.

Just what I expected. I like it and it works for me.

Thumbs up

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’ve been using it in bottom brackets and haven’t had any issues! Park tool makes great stuff!

I purchased this thinking it had 4oz of compound and it’s mostly air inside the tube? Truly misleading. There’s actually just about 1oz of stuff inside. Update: I wrote parktool complaining about the quantity and they wrote back saying the tube didn’t fill up all the way and it’s defective. They asked me to return it to Amazon for a replacement.

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

Good

Awesome Compound, it really does work. I will say its a lot for the price but since its made in America you get what you pay for. It will last me a long time, as long as you use it in small amounts, it wasn’t just perfect for my bottom bracket, but Threaded surfaces like limit screws, axles, cone nuts, axle nuts, threaded spacers, etc. Ive used this on Limit screws, my Bottom Bracket, any place with a machined threaded surface, hole etc. In fact on my bottom bracket shell of my frame was threaded, I did put ASC-1 grease on the threads inside the shell before installing the Bottom Bracket. The biggest problem I have had is the stripping of the threads, which is my biggest problem, so I started using it on screws on my derailleurs including my freewheel, and anything and everything with a threaded surface going into metal parts. This stuff really is awesome, and Park Tool is a brand and company I trust completely they really do know what theyre doing. My only Recommendation to Park Tool is to put this in a tub like they have with PPL-1. Otherwise if you go through a lot of this you have to be prepared to spend a lot. Otherwise, I highly recommend it!
