Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

The bolts holding the rear derailleur pulleys are "shoulder bolts" so they stop at the right depth. Tighten them fully. Thread locker is applied by the manufacturer for the initial assembly but I've never needed it when I've removed the pulleys for cleaning and then reinstalled them. Just be sure the bolts are tight.
