For All Dovetail Front And Rear Sight Installs
Loctite® 262 Threadlocker
"Loctite® 262" is what we use on all dovetail front and rear sight installs. — Use it on rear sight installs as it makes it possible tap rear sight for windage adjustment, and use very small amount on set screws so they can be loosened to adjust.

DO NOT forget Loctite 620 for your 1911 front dove tail sights. I made the mistake first time around and mine came loose. I had no luck finding Loctite 620 anywhere local!
Loctite 262 for rear and lock screw.
The small packs is plenty for a set of sights.
I purchased the 0.5mL Loctite 262 for use with my new competition sights and it was enough to use once, mess up, and do it over. Held up fine and I'm over 300 rounds in. Don't forget to add it when you order the sights!
This is the perfect size for a individual replacement.
I used this Locktite 262 to install my screw-on front and Dovetail rear DawsonPrecision sights as recommended by Mr. Dawson himself. Worked great, will use from now on.
