pesky valve/elbow leak, what to do?

[angelKiller16]

hello, basically since i've had my mag i've had touble with my elbow connected to the valve, I had teflon tape on it and it was fine untill it got bumed, loosed and leaked. I have been trying blue loc-tite but it won't seel. Should i try red teflon cause i don't ever want the thing to move and nothing else works. I was also thinking of using a swivle elbow do it can move if it hs to but the seal won't be loosend, what should do?

Bajaboy didn't say it all.
Don't use blue or red loctite on it. These are threadlockers. What you want is phnumatic line sealent. These are loctite 545 and loctite 592. That is the best way to do it. Now the easy, lazy, cheater, could cause problems, what everyone else does way to do it. Is use lots of teflon tape. Now if you have half a brain, you will use as little teflon as possible to attain a seal. Being sure that atleast the last thread, if not 2 threads on the connector has no tape on it.

teflon is to me, what ducktape is to cocker owners.
