Gardner BenderOX-800 8OZ Anti-Oxy Compound, 1 Count (Pack of 1), 8 Fl Oz

This paste works well when connecting dissimilar metals to switches or breakers

I've been using this product for years, it's an excellent anti corrosion and anti seize compound.

I am a hobbyist & use this for (mostly) small electrical connections (based on other reviews, I'm confident the product will work well). Unfortunately for me, the neck of the tube broke off when I put the cap back on; thus it tends to be quite messy with a lot of product wasted. Fortunately, I devised a "work-around" solution.I keep the product protected by putting a nitrate-glove over the tube. I draw a small amount into a syringe (I get them at the local discount pharmacy for $0.25). This allows me to apply very small amounts to the tiny surfaces of my projects with accuracy and very little waste.

We mainly use this stuff for our cars/trucks, many of the older cars/trucks had this compound to prevent corrosion in the light bulbs, however (gm especially), this compound would harden, and it is very difficult to get it out.Ox guard, was meant for alum house wiring, but give it a try in the automotive world. We put it on any connection, sockets, bulbs, connectors/etc. Keeps moisture and crud out.Another great use, if you solder two wires (or crimp), put this over the connection, and then put heat shrink tubing over that for a connection that wont fail.Used this on the feeder cable (alum) for my house, and after 20 years, have not had any issues with corrosion of the wires.Alum house wiring requires this stuff , and it's really not a bad idea to use it on copper either for a little extra bit of prevention.

My only complaint is that Amazon needs to keep 1oz tubes in stock as 8 oz will last till the rapture. Seriously anytime I work with aluminum power feeds I use this as a precautionary measure as you never know if the connection really is dual rated. I got this after the underground 200amp feed to my shop took a lightning hit, one incoming line looked like new, the other I forgot to use this and it melted to a 200 amp breaker, if I have 7 oz left 30 years from now it will still be a good investment as I hate digging new trenches to run a new feeder, buying a new 200 amp breaker and all the other work involved.
