The silicone grease used in aviation is recommended for this use. What I saw too late after ordering the tube.
For first impressions, this silicone grease "Carlube" fulfills its role: the ink does not rush into the threads of the fountain pen and did not escape.
The lubricant is slightly opaque, but not really white; medium consistency (neither liquid nor frankly consistent). As an ointment rapidly recovering its transparency and a proper viscosity when applied. I did not notice any particular-greasing too difficult to remove. In addition, it is odorless. Which is not negligible.
I took the opportunity to lubricate the threads of other fountain pens, inappropriate mode "eye dropping". Coarser threads have fled, though use with standard cartridges. I hope not to meet this kind of inconvenience in the future.
Meanwhile, it's nice to not hear squeaking noises when the screwing. Everything is going smoothly and I feel as a phenomenon of good adhesion, a sealing.
For now, this silicone grease suitable for use as I do. A 20g tube should last a good time! I only regret the total lack of composition on packaging.
This review will be amended in case of any further comment.

Hereinafter, a laborious translation of the instructions (all written in English) of a handyman of the 366th day of a leap year, which is better than nothing. The remarks connoisseurs are welcome:
Properties:
High-grade silicone grease resistant, temperature extremes, water and corrosion.
Reduces friction and provides lubrication life that is not found in traditional fats.
Lubricates and protects all plastic and rubber subjected to constant friction.
Excellent barrier against moisture, eliminates squeaks, water sealing without cracking or tearing the rubber.
Uses:
Ideally suitable for calipers new brake pads.
O-rings of convertible tops, brake and clutch cables, seals of doors and windows, candles boots, plastic pipes.
Do not use silicone grease on friction surfaces such as brakes, discs, etc. or disks of an electrical system.
Keep out of reach of children. If swallowed, prevent medical services by presenting the product.

Caution: Do not use grease on nearby joints of the body. Also quite volatile, silicone damage it irreparably. This is contradictory aspect met for the use of seals of a convertible car roof, reading reviews of customers Amazon.uk!?!
