Nope! There's no way any climbing gym would rebuild its walls to be full of expensive proprietary nuts. If they cared, they could use loctite or lock washers.

It seems there's very little money in fixing spun holds.
- blhack 12y agoClimbing gyms change their "routes" pretty frequently, so I don't think they would use locktite.
- DanBC 12y agoYou get different grades of Loctite. Climbing walls don't get that much vibration but a thread-locking product would provide some reassurance.
- bronson 12y agoWhy? Loctite Blue is meant to be disassembled and reassembled: http://www.loctiteproducts.com/p/t_lkr_blue/overview/Loctite-Threadlocker-Blue-242.htm http://www.loctiteproducts.com/p/t_lkr_blue/overview/Loctite... Gyms clearly don't use loctite, but I think it's just because the problem doesn't warrant the slight increase in mess and hassle.
- blhack 12y agoAh, okay. I thought locktite was only a "mostly permanent" adhesive. Thanks for the info!
