Thread lock question?

(1/3) > >>

Kaner:
My LHS crank arm keeps coming loose and the arm falls off.  Its really bloody annoying me, but its probably my fault for buying a £7.99 Bottom Bracket off ebay?

Does anyone know the difference between a specific 'Thread Lock Loctite' and a good quality high viscosity Super Glue?

Will super glue do the same job as loctite?  It says it glues metal and calls its self 'BondLoc' suggesting it will.

Any advice would be appreciated.#

Many Thanks
Ben

I would go for the locktite as super glue can be brittle.

bobbysam:
go for the threadlock mate, super glue is only good for glueing your fingers together :shocked:

Kaner:
Ahh rubbish . . . where do I get locktite from then?

stevochb:
Here you go mate.
