Bob,
As you say, and as I understand, the torque tube is nickle plated. I believe
that the TP12 is stainless. However, I seem to remember that Loctite still
reconed on the activator being a 'good idea' for the nickle plated side of
the join too.

Hi! Peter.
Thanks for the reply. Good to know, I'm sorely tempted ! However just out of
interest I know that the torque tube is NICKLE plated so I guess it isn't
stainless otherwise it wouldn't plate.
Not that the plate stays on long! Don't know about the TP12 and TP9 Parts
though.
That's only about 5 replies I've had plus one I know locally, so 1) either a
lot of people are not aware or 2) a lot of people are more accurate than you
or I , an item which I suspect the factory subscribe to! I was pleased to
see that you said yours was accurately machined, I know mine was the second
time and I know my local freinds was but all are still wearing.
