Adhesive on rings ?

[Paul K]

I have been having some trouble with a couple of my scopes walking, both are Swarozski's. I am not a novice when it comes to mounting and truing scopes or lapping rings for that matter. I have inch pound wrenchs. 18 to 20 inch pounds is not getting it. Is there an adhesive that you can use on the ring to stop this problem.

What is liquid tape and where can I get it.
I know that Schmidt - Bender talks about a scope adhesive on the rings and I believe Swarovski does also.

10 minute araldite

I have tried silicone and different tipes of gasket cement to no avail.
I hate to have to over torque and pinch a tube, or stress the tube.

Try the 10 minute araldite. Just a smear on the inside of the rings. It will hold any scope in any mount firm.

And when the time comes it’s also easily removed from both rings and scope tube with a few scratches of your thumb nail
