Absolutely not! There are dangerous chemicals in Loctite that interact with the plastic resins used on the Hokey Spoke housings. It dissolves the plastic and will cause permanent damage. While some people think this will keep Hokey Spokes on “tight”, it has the opposite effect. When properly installed, Hokey Spokes will not come off the spoke. Check your attachment screws occasionally to make sure they are tight at all times. That’s why we send a free Phillips screwdriver with each order!
