Hey guys, I went looking for LOC 51048 here in Sweden but no luck. Instead I found LB 8012 wich is 65% moly anti-seize paste for splines. Sound familiar? According to the technical data sheet it is also known as Loctice moly paste. Most likely the same stuff. Maybe its called LOC 51048 in the US and LB 8012 in the rest of the world?
Yep, identical to Loctite 234227, according to specs here:
LB 8012™ Moly Paste, Dark Grey, 8 oz Bottle w/ Brushtop

LOCTITE ® LB 8012
Known as LOCTITE ® 8012 or LOCTITE ® Moly Paste April -2015
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION LOCTITE ® LB 8012 provides the following product characteristics:
Technology: Anti-Seize
Appearance: Dark gray paste
LMS Cure: Not applicable
Application: Lubrication
Specific Benefit
● Provides smoother than new metal surfaces
LOCTITE ® LB 8012
contains 65% molybdenum disulfide for maximum lubricity.
It is a heavy, black paste with unsurpassed lubricating qualities.
Machine tool marks and other irregularities are reduced to a mirror-smooth finish by its lubricating action.
LOCTITE ® LB 8012 reduces friction on threaded fasteners, including bolts, nuts and studs.
The low and uniform friction coefficient of 0.06 creates reliable assembly conditions.
Lubricant stays in place through heat, load and vibration to ensure a trouble-free disassembly.
For the ultimate in low friction solid lubrication:
press fit - no binding, no chatter or stick-slip, low force;
threaded fasteners - higher clamping for torque, less torque for same clamping, ease of removal (anti-seize);
slip-fit - easy assembly, disassembly, ready alignment;
metalworking - drawing, stamping, coining, extruding, forging - lower friction, eliminates stretching, galling, metal pick-up, lengthens die life;
splines - reduces wear and binding;
gears - stands up under high static or slow-moving loads. This product is typically used in applications with an operating range of -29°C to +400°C
