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.

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!
