Default Looking For Conductive Thread Sealant

I Need An Electrically Conductive Thread Sealant For My Digital Temperature Sending Unit. It Needs To Be Grounded At The Block To Work Correctly. Any Suggestions?

I would think that grounding shouldn't be an issue. By tightening, the threads should still have condsiderable metal to metal contact no matter what type of sealant your using except for maybe teflon tape. You can check it with a ohm meter after installation to be sure.

Although this isn't a sealant, it is conductive and an anti-sieze. I use it for my temp sensor and spark plugs on my aluminum heads.
