Loctite suggestion for Leatherman torx screw
on: January 10, 2017, 03:10:23 PM
Hello all,

I have replaced the broken scissors on my Leatherman Wave. Now I want to put some Loctite to prevent the torx from spinning. Which one is the best bet? Loctite 222 or 243?

Thanks in advance for your valuable suggestions

In that application I think either would work fine. I would probably use the blue myself.  :tu:

Loctite 222 or Permatex Low Strength, either one are colour coded "purple". I would recommend that strength for the size screw involved.

Go purple...:)
