Blue Loctite has never been an issue for me if I needed to do another later adjustment. It doesn't lock the screw up, it simply makes it resistant to moving easily. You can still change the screw tension with blue Loctite applied.SchuetzenDave wrote: ↑Thu Jan 04, 2024 7:06 pm If there is not set screw on the side to prevent the screw from loosening - take to a machinist to drill a hole and thread it so a set screw can be put in to stop the sprue plate screw from rotating out.
Then you can adjust the tension whereas it is difficult to do if you use locktite on it.

Re: Saeco mold problem
Lumpy, I just bought two new Saeco molds when BACO put them on sale. They just arrived yesterday and both have the screws. I would never have noticed them without this thread thoughLumpy Grits wrote: ↑Fri Jan 05, 2024 9:01 am OP, is this a newer made mould?
Both of my older ones have the set screw.
Call the maker, and let us know what they say.....
Chris.
