Recommend using the product called "Guntite" its a locktite product (IIRC), and holds well, yet comes apart with tools fine also.

Loctite has a range of products, coded both by colors (blue, red, green, etc) and numbers as well (242, 271, 272, etc.). Using the wrong one will mean a hassle.

Guntite is for gun screws. I don't know which one it is in the industrial lineup, but I know it works well for me. You can get it nearly everyplace that carries sporting goods.
