Is it OK to use thread lock sealant on pedal threads?
Piemaster said:Bit of grease for me too, and a gentle nip up.
A threadlock should be sort of a gel once the thread is tightened, but there are different strengths of hold. I use the stuff at work but it only goes on screws that are generally subject to vibration or on high speed rotational objects. Don't really want a bolt coming off when rotating at 5000rpm. I doubt your cadence is anywhere near that.
Threads don't tighten in use.Svendo said:I know it seems counter intuitive, but doesn't threadlock prevent threads tightening as well as loosening, being basically glue? .
it's great for crank bolts though.Sheffield_Tiger said:Threadlock has little or no place in the cycle workshop
