[RE-wrenches] Haticon Mid and Ends

[Ray Walters]

They need anti-seize lube on the threads.  Also, I would not use power 
tool/ impact drivers to tighten them, they not only can over torque 
them, they spin too fast which causes the bolt threads to gall. Check 
with S Flex, I believe they are using a coating on their hardware now 
that alleviates the galling.
