SNIP.. The silicone grease I am most familiar with and used extensively during my career for "O" rings on waveguides among other things, was Dow Corning's DC-4. Another brand was Accumetric Inc. Now

I use Dow-Corning DC-4. Some people call it "O-ring grease". I learned of its use many years ago in the oceanographic survey business. This kind of product is usually not found in retail places. Find

Has anyone tried that stuff called "Stuf" that's sold by AES, HRO, etc. as a coax connector filler/sealant? Sounds like you use it just like you would use the silicone grease others have been mention

RadioWare in Massachusetts (a QST advertiser) carries this stuff. It's not particularly cheap, but it works as advertised. A single connector pair doesn't have a lot of air space, either, so it goes

Many of my AB-105 towers and much of my hardline came from a decomissioned over-the-horizon radar facility in Whitehouse, VA near Williamsburg. All of their RF connectors were stuffed with dielectric

Yep, I've been using it for a few years both in CATV systems and my ham feedlines. I haven't found any negatives yet. "Stuf" is white and is formulated with Teflon. It is a little thinner in consist
