Abstract:
A method for protecting threaded connections with an anti-seize/lubricating system, the method comprising the steps of:a) coating the threads, prior to their make-up, with a solvent thinned resin based bonding composition comprising a suspending agent, a bonding agent, a thinning agent, and a metallic flake; b) drying the coated threads for a time sufficient to bond the bonding composition to the threads to form an anti-seize film on the thread; and c) coating the threads having the anti-seize film bonded thereto, prior to their make-up, with a fluid lubricating composition, where the anti-seize film and the lubricating composition form the anti-seize/lubricating system.
