Blue Loctite—OK on Mag Head Thread?

CLHC · Oct 26, 2005

Greetings!

I don't know if this has already been answered, but I was wondering if anyone here knows if it's a good idea to use Blue Loctite on the threads of the MiniMag head to prevent it from turning once I've "dialed-in" the sweet spot?

In this [spark]ticular application it would be for the TripleMiniMag with the Kroll Clickie instead of the twisty head for on and off scenario. . .

Please advise! and Thanks!

It would be a decent way to lock the threads. I would definately clean the threads with some IPA first though Loctite also makes a purple grade that is a bit lighter in strength that may be better though. Just dont use the red stuff or you will never get it off.

Purple eh? I have to remember that one and check it out. Indeed I knew about the Red one. . .Thanks WhiteHot!

shoegoo is a good option too.

Regular household silicone caulk would probably work and add a bit of seal to it. Should be easy to remove when needed. Probably somthing you already have.
