    S916 steel toe height screw loose

    <p>
    Anyone have any thoughts on fixing an old S916 that won&#39;t hold it&#39;s toe height? The screw keeps loosening off.</p>

    Similar to what was mentioned above. I've never used it on a binding but have on equipment, wrap the screw with pipe tape to take up space and then coat with Loctite. I always use red but if other guys say blue for bindings, use blue.

    well red is suposed to be permanent while blue is not and if you use the green sleeve reataining ( there might be other green stuff) its like epoxying whatever you use it on, I used it on creaking square taper raceface cranks and it worked awesume ... till the spindle snapped off</p>

    It works exactly like loctite blue but it doesn't degrade plastics.

    VC3 is applied wet but you let it fully dry on the thread (which only takes a few mins) before use.
