What is the difference between copper grease and normal grease? ›

Copper grease is an anti seize compound specially designed to operate at extremes of temperature. It's important to note that it is not a lubricating grease. It is used in the auto industry to prevent seizing and protect against corrosion in situations of very high temperatures.

ADVANTAGES OF COPPER GREASE:

Protects Against Corrosion (eg: battery terminals) Helps Form Secure Durable Seals. Excellent Conductor of Heat (can assist heat transfer when applied to the back of a brake) Can Help Prevent Disc Brake Squeal.

The main reason for copper grease falling out of favour, however, is because it can affect the vehicle's ABS, ESP and EPB systems. Braking systems or driver assistance systems are highly sophisticated these days and with every year that passes, more electronics are being used in vehicle braking systems.

MTEC CG29 Copper Grease should be used between the brake pad backing plates and caliper piston heads and contact points. Ensure all surfaces are clean before use. Squeeze MTEC CG29 on to the brake pad backing plate. Ensuring there is enough to cover the whole backing plate.

Just use a wire brush on your bolts and clean out the threads in the hub. The reason why people say no, is because the grease can act as a hydraulic between the threads and cause them to undo, and give false torque readings.

Yes on the portion of the pads that contact the caliper bracket. Prior to that remove all rust from contact areas. Make sure the shiny metal is greased as well to help prevent the rust from coming back.

Copper Grease is especially recommended for applications where lead content is unacceptable (present in many other anti-seize compounds). Apply grease to the required surfaces to the recommended amount. Store sealed in a cool, dry place. 5 years from date of manufacture.

Normal rules don't apply with alloy wheel nuts due to the dreaded corrosion. The thinnest smear of copper grease on the faces that contact the wheel, as well as the areas of the wheel that contact the hub, will potentially safe you hours of strife in the future.

Copper grease isn't the best stuff for braking systems as it's oil based and therefore can attack rubber seals. What you should use is rubber grease. Castrol do what they call Red Rubber Grease specifically for such applications. A pound of that should last you a good few generations.

5. Conventional petroleum-based grease is NOT a substitute for dielectric grease.

We recommend using a NLGI #2 (Polyurea or multipurpose) grease. What does NLGI mean? NLGI stands for the National Lubricating Grease Institute and is the institution that certifies grease. Grease can range from NLGI #000 to NLGI #6, but the most common is NLGI #2 because it can be used for a wide temperature range.
