[TheForge] molybdenum disulphide

Kevin,

I've never used it but G Dixon wrote up a product review back in the Winter 1998 issue of The Hammers Blow.

He gave "Saf-T-Eze" an excellent rating. He describes it as a "Nickle Anti Seize"..."Anti-Seize is a grease like substance."

The review says in part...."I found it's greatest application as a very high temperature lubricant for slit, drift and closed die forging"..."The Anti-Sieze coated tooling did the same job in 1/3 less heats."

I googled and found http://www.saftlok.com/safteze/

If you try it let me know.

Bob
