Stuff For Wheel Studs?

[Old Scaley]

So I have ordered a new trailer to replace my aging redco. I can't remember the name of the stuff you put on the wheel studs to stop them locking on. I have been lucky to never have to change a trailer wheel on the side of the road but if I did have to I know there is no way I could undo the wheel nuts. Every time I have replaced the bearings I have had to take the trailer to the local mechanic to get the rattle gun onto them. So this time I want to make sure I could get the nuts undone on my own. What is that stuff called?

Is it ANTISEIZE you're thinking of.

Not sure Gary, but if it will do the job then that is what I need. Thanks @Angry51

Been caught twice with overtightened wheel nuts so have invested in a battery operated rattle gun from super cheap.

 Last time I did a side wall on a tyre that was only 3 weeks old and was not able to undo 3 of the nuts even with a 4 ft bar on the brace . 2 hrs on side of M1 was the decider. Went back to the retailer and had a big spit and was told that their rattle guns were checked every day so i challenged them to try and undo wheel nuts on the other 3 wheels on the car and guess what  he had to get rattle gun and retightened them using a torque wrench

Magic bit of gear and i use it frequently could not do without it..

Thanks @rayke1938 but really should we have to go to that expense just to change a wheel? Do you remember how much it cost?

around $130 on special worth every penny when you are stuck beside m1 at 4am in rain

I just spray lanolin oil on them. Can get it from Supercheap.
