[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Strikefire Mount torque

Posted: 9/3/2009 2:46:36 PM EDT

Is there a suggested torque for the mount bolt (the one that holds the sight to the rail)? My sight keeps coming loose after I shoot. Would you suggest some non permanant loc-tite as well? Since we are here how about a torque for the screws that secure the sight into the mount? Thanks for the info.

Yes, we suggest 75inch-lbs (NOT foot-lbs) for the cross bolt and 22inch-lbs for the ring screws.

Using blue loc-tite is also a good idea.

Hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything else.

Are you sure about the 75 inch-pounds for the mounting cross bolt?
That seem kind of tight .
Thanks

Yes 75in-lbs is tight. You would probably be fine with as low as 50in-lbs.
