Clean the mating surfaces of transfered bits of metal. You may need to lightly sand the spinner and the mating surface of the wheel. Surfaces should be relatively smooth with no transfered bits of metal on the tapered surfaces. Then use anti sieze on the threads and tapered mating surfaces. I use the 2" X 2" X 18" made from Oak or Ash and a 3lb sledge. Its worked great for me for several years. Humidity or moisture could be causing light corrosion.
