Rogue Neck keeps coming loose, loc-tite it?

[afultz075]

I finally got a chance to shoot my E-Mag tonight (wow, I love it), but I noticed my Rogue Neck likes to vibrate loose. So i'm wondering, is it a good idea to loc-tite it down. If so, what kind should I use. How much should I put on the threads as well (never used it before).

just use a strap wrench and get it down nice and tight

Don't have a strap wrench, Loc-tite is easier (cheaper) for me.

Cool! Looks like blue loc-tite it is.

Go buy a strap wrench for the $10 should you ever need / want to change it, and they are uber useful for many other things as well.

The thing is, i've been using one of those grip pads to tighten it down (i'm sure you've seen them, those round rubber things that help get lids off of jars) and it's still coming loose, so how much tighter could a strap wrench get it?

so how much tighter could a strap wrench get it?

A helluva lot tighter than you'll ever get with your bare handed jar opener!

Strap wrench = more leverage = more torque. The longer the handle ... the greater the torque.
