I have had the B nuts on fluid fittings come loose on a couple occasions. Anyone have a reason not to use loctite on thr B nut threads?

Clyde,

One reason not to use locktite is if there is any chance the B nut is coming loose repeatedly because of a worn or damaged part in the hookup; or, incorrect torque, or incorrect installation - if it keeps happening, there may be a reason that has not yet been discovered.

Sincerely,

Dave S
