Re: Proofing against corrosion with threads?

[Casey Lynn]

What better location to learn what thread lubricant/protectant is best than the Miami, Florida and the Keys area?
All they see down there is salt water stuff. We used to recommend gasket sealing compound for years and it is not bad.
They are using teflon based pipe thread sealant (PTFE) on threads that go below the water line and are having the most success with this than anything they have ever tried.
These guys know it works better than anything they had tried previously and taught us about it so we helped spread the word.
Yamaha probably learned this down there as well.
