Are you referrng to Teflon tape? Can this stuff withstand heat?Use a 1 inch long piece of white plumbers tape, cut it in half, wrap nipple threads and that issue will be a thing of the past.

It's Teflon, ie - cooking pan coating, steam piping joints, etc.....Are you referrng to Teflon tape? Can this stuff withstand heat?
Yup, that stuffed shirt chest beating attitude has driven many from the sport. I'll bet the self proclaimed ex-spurts at that shoot drove home in petrol fueled vehicles with heaters and air conditioners in them too.Got called out for using ‘plastic’ years ago at a ML shoot because you could see a bit of white around my Allen wrench style ventliner. Wasn’t using the ‘HC/PC’ Never-Seez that others were using. Left the event as soon as I could pickup and pack my gear without firing a shot. Last I heard the club running the shoot disbanded because of the lack of members.
I believe the writer was talking about BLUE LOC-TITE and just referred to it as “grease”.Blue Grease? Is there a color code for different colors of grease? I've seen it in various colors but never figured out why the variety.
Sorry guys. "Blue Grease" Is a color of grease-gun grease for machinery often used on high speed bearings due to it's specific "high heat" tolerance. Maybe it just doesn't have a "black powder" tolerance. Next I will try some spark plug (high heat) anti-seize and then the tapeBlue Grease? Is there a color code for different colors of grease?

Is this a fairly common occurrence or a rare thing with Hotshot? I've haven't used this particular product yet.Ordered two Hotshot nipples for my GPR and they wouldn't screw in properly. After close inspection I noticed nipples were double threaded...meaning there was two starting points cut into the threads.
I use hot shot nipples. Mine are 1/4-28 and I install them easily.Ordered two Hotshot nipples for my GPR and they wouldn't screw in properly. After close inspection I noticed nipples were double threaded...meaning there was two starting points cut into the threads.
Have used Hot Shots for years with no problems...until now. Will use them again but will look closely before taking out of package.Is this a fairly common occurrence or a rare thing with Hotshot? I've haven't used this particular product yet.
