Default knuckles and C-hub

i am about to put my Strc aluminum hubs and knuckles on my wraith. and my buddy has the same ones. but his screws keep backing out. And i heard lock tite shouldn't be used? is this true or is there another way to get them to stay.

Lock-tite should always be used.

Use the "Blue" loctite & they will stay in.

That is only for plastic parts as the loctite can break down the plastic.

Definitely use the blue and a little drop goes a long way. If you drown the part in it, the loctite won't set up properly.
