K factor approximation for dry clean steel is .20.

The K factor for antisize can be anywhere from .19 to .10.

Dividing the smaller K factor by the larger K factor and multiplying by your original torque spec will give you the corrected value for torquing your bolts to.

In the case of Permatex products the K factors are -

* Standard Anti-Seize K = 0.18
* Copper Anti-Seize K = 0.16
* Nickel Anti-Seize K = 0.13
