greg watts Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Just had my pipe off for a clean up while I also install some carbon tech reeds. When I put it back together is it best to use copper slip on the threads of the allen head bolts that go in to the barrel? What's the perceived wisdom of the Beta masses?

thats_a_five Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 Yes, apply some anti-seize on the threads. Not grease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ludescotty Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 ive always put copper slip on - I do on every bolt I take out to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dadof2 Posted September 3, 2013 Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 My preference is to replace the allen bolts with studs and nuts if there is room. I see quite a few barrels damaged with crossed or stripped threads from use (misuse) of allen bolts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
