Do you have a product called "Never Seez" in Oz, Pommy? If you do, or there's an equivalent schmear a little on the threads & run the bolt back & forth a few times to distribute evenly before final re-assembly.

We have a product called copperslip over here in the UK which mechanics use on the back of disk brake pads etc.  It's a high temp grease and ideal for lubing bolts etc. My lad Alex swears by it.

Sounds like something similar, kind of a copper/bronze colored greasy thing?

 A couple of pertinent points about neversieze and similar products. The one we used to use working underground was a Loctite brand "antiseize", and was carcinogenic. Always read the label...
Another was "copper coat", bronze in colour, but they took it off the market...hmmmm....

One other point, as these products were usually a platelet form lube, they have in themselves, physical thickness- that is they are measurable in thickness, unlike oil which can be squeezed away. As a thread antiseize, this is what makes it work, keeping the metal surfaces apart. But never use the stuff for slip or press fitted parts as it can make the tolerances too tight and lock up while assembling.

Interesting, I wasnt aware of the carcinogenic properties. Its a wonder mining companies still allow it to be used.
When I worked on mobile equipment in the mining industry, we use heaps. Try undoing dozer track bolts that have not had antisieze used on them. It was easier to get the boilermaker to cut those off.
Another good one is the old graphite grease. That was all my father would use and years later I have easily taken apart bolts that he did up.

 Yes thats the stuff. You can get it small tubes or 8oz tins, impervious to water but easy to clean off with kerosene or brake cleaner.
