Follow Up Question - Loctite and UM Handle & Ball

[gjw]

Hey all, I don't want to screw up attaching the ball to the handle using Loctite.

So, what procedure did you use to attach the ball successfully

Many thanks!

Clean the threads of both with a degreaser like electric motor cleaner and apply a good amount of Loctite 380. Those threads are very course so make sure you get the 380 in those threads and tighten up. You have about 90 seconds until it sets depending on temp.

Thanks! I'm assuming you'd put the loctite on the handle threads?
