A test engineer friend of mine who had a side business overhauling turbochargers discovered it and got Pratt & Whitney to start using it where seizing/oxidation of fasteners exposed to temperatures of 1200-1400F was a big problem! GFS used it to get his OB trim & tilt assembly apart when nothing else worked. A top notch hardware store may carry it, or you can order it direct or from Eastwood. Denny

Oh, the horror. Yes, I turned a 10" brass drift into a cigar butt in a month of Sundays with
a 3 pound sledge and 2 jumbo tanks of mapp gas. I finally got it with an air hammer.

Is there any way to get good backing on it to hold it hard and get an air hammer on it?
I must have done 200 soak, heat , and beat cycles. All the pros said you can`t do it without O/A. Never again.

Only mushroom one side of the pin...

CRC makes a product called Freeze-Off. If heat doesn't work, you can try the opposite approach. I've used it with some success.

Good luck.

Used that as well. The copper C clips were my first clue. BRP denied the battery.
Really? Salt can make you feel really small.
