Suppressors Loctite on Muzzle Brake

[stan462]

I use a Yankee Hill brake on my 6.8 SPC and my Rem 700. After shooting on the Rem. 700, the brake usually twist off with the can. I have no issue on the 6.8 SPC. I was wonder if I was able to use loctite to lock it down??

Definitely, that is exactly what loctite is for.

Use rockset. Works better than loctite. AAC ships all their muzzle brakes with this stuff.

Make sure to use the right stuff though (blue loctite). Red Loctite will take the threads right off an aluminum can

If you have got aluminum threads, you've got bigger problems than locktite will fix....

Red or Blue Loctite will soften and be removable after it heats up to or over 300F. I personally would not use it on the end of a barrel. A small set screw would be a better lock. YMMV
