Status: offline 		Im picking up a graphite chassis, and wondering if I should use any kind of compound on the screws, I was looking at different types of thread locker, and didnt see graphite specifically mentioned- any suggestions?

Cheers,

Status: offline 		Im picking up the 3 racing graphite chassis for a TT-01, and a set of titanium screws I also picked up every single piece of red alloy hop-ups I could for the car, the metal on metal I am going to use the Tamiya threadlocker on it - but I wanted to get some feedback on what works best for graphite and keeps the screws in - like I said, I went to the hardware store and looked at maybe 20 different adhesives and nothing specifically mentioned graphite, I am sure its not something "most" typical uses include - I just wanted some info from someone who maybe had some experience with it

Status: offline 		The screws wont be threading into the graphite, just through it. Whatever the screws are threading INTO is what should decide whethe ror not you use the threadlocker. Into plastic, no threadlock, into metal, the blue stuff.

Hope that helps.
