    thanks for the advice, Mike, That will most likely have to be our next steps in solving the issue.

    loctite 51609 on npt fittings

    I should have said in the original post that this anti seize is mandated and spec'ed by the customer and we cannot use anything else for sealing or lubricating. I know and agree that this is not the right stuff to be using, just wanted to search out to see if anyone else has come into this issue...

    loctite 51609 on npt fittings

    Has anyone used this heavy duty anti seize on npt's. We are having a big issue with getting our fittings to seal using this lubricant. hoping to get any tips on eliminating the leaks during assembly so we don't have to go back and torque them down more or have to remove the fitting all together.
