Loose tuning hammer tip

[Isaac OLEG]

I use a piece of Teflon tape like the one used by plumbers, to have a
tighter fit.

It is easy to change and, even it the fit is not as tight as with a
perfect thread (I can feel the piece of tape a little) , it does not
unscrew no more.

Loctite may work and have more than one quality.

Objet : Loose tuning hammer tip


Hello List,

Any suggestions on how to keep a tuning tip from constantly working
loose?  I just started using an extension hammer after 23 years with a
one-piece
Yamaha hammer.   The extension is GREAT, and I've wrapped it with cork
tape from a bicycle shop, to pad the handle.  Only problem is the tip
keeps
working itself loose throughout the day.    I guess I want to be able
to
remove it if the need arises, or I would  have epoxied it
together.....

Thanks in advance for any help!


Best regards,
