I hope I never am the wrench that has to take apart your Loctited parts Especially small, fine threaded, AL bits. I try to avoid using Loctite for threaded fittings if at all possible. In fact I use grease to lube all mating surfaces (including the outsides of the female half of the ring bolt) because I find in the rust belt I live in corrosion is the greater problem and a lubed fitting can be tightened more with less damage to the tool sockets or slots.
