Twin screw installation
Vol. 23 #2, Oct. 1996

Treat Never Seize like gold. Use sparingly on shafts and remove any excess from between elements.

Too much Never Seize will leave enough of a gap between elements to allow polymer to penetrate under elements along the shaft; in effect, making it more difficult instead of easier to change elements.
