The fitting instructions for the bar-raisers I got say

Medium strength liquid thread=locker (i.e. "Locktite" [sic] should be used to secure all screws, bolts and nuts

Now I've taken a look at the relevant section of Loctite SA's site, but not got any wiser.

I do know there are some Loctites that will permanently bond metal to metal, some that will require lots of heat to be loosened, and others that will just lightly bind and prevent loosening of the bolt. Being a bit of a mechie dunce though, I have no idea which is which...

Any help out there as to what I should use for making sure my handle bars don't vibrate loose from the tractor engine I ride?
