Abstract

Form  This foundation specification (AMS3050) and its associated category specifications (AMS3050/1 through AMS3050/9) cover anti-seize compounds for use on threads of nuts, studs, bolts, and other mating surfaces, including those of superheated steam installations, at temperatures up to 1050 °F (566 °C). Compounds containing PTFE are limited to 600 °F (315 °C) maximum. Materials for nuts, studs, bolts, and other mating surfaces include, but are not limited to: steel, nickel alloys, stainless steel, and silver-coated materials. This specification invokes the Performance Review Institute (PRI) product qualification process. Requests for submittal information may be made to the PRI at the address in 2.3.3, referencing this specification. Products qualified to this specification are listed on a Qualified Products List (QPL) managed by the PRI. Additional tests and evaluations may be required by individual equipment builders before a grease is approved for use in their equipment. Approval and/or certification for use of a specific grease in aero and aero-derived marine and industrial applications is the responsibility of the individual equipment builder and/or government authorities and is not implied by compliance with or qualification to this specification.  Foundation and Category Specifications  This foundation specification establishes the requirements for all anti-seize compounds conforming to this specification.  The individual category specifications establish the requirements by separate anti-seize additives. Synthetic fluids and lithium complex soap thickeners are typically part of greases of this type, but other base fluids and thickeners may be acceptable.
