This range of materials should be of benefit to gun makers and repairers who often have to wield hammers, adjustable wrenches and pry bars to dismantle long corroded weapons which their previous owners had erroneously thought required zero maintenance.

Often pneumatic speargun manufacturers use anti-seize compounds on screw threads which are wiped off and never replaced by subsequent speargun owners who do not realize the significance of the stuff on the screw threads when they first dismantle their guns. You need to use the correct anti-seize compound which is indicated here by a "how to" Acrobat pdf guide.
