Default Which locktite to use....

....on the my Belt CP V2's steel feathering shaft? The 5.5 mm bolts have a white plastic inside the bolts. So which threadlock should I use (steel & plastic combo)???

Any help is appreciated!

Threadlock is reported to attack most plastics and should only be used for metal to metal contact. I use a drop of thick/med CA.

dooleyje - thanks for the help!

I've got foam safe CA I use for one of my jets. Do you think that'll be OK?
