[QUOTE="Mark DeArman, post: 113671, member: 950"] Re: loctite and antennas If the connectors metal, then any Cyanoacrylate adhesive should work okay, and easily be removed with a razor blade later. If the connectors are plastic or some other polymer then I would test other adhesives. Repeated use of a cyanoacrylate on some materials might melt away the plastic parts over time. Perhaps a small dab of silicone would secure them? Epoxy adhesives might never come off again without damage. If you don't care, then start with the cheapest and see how well it bonds. EDIT: After looking closer, I see you're talking about threadlock. Don't use that, that is crazy. Secure the antenna normally and the use a dab of adhesive as I said above to keep the nut from spinning. [/QUOTE]
