Thought Rexon should be listed as I sell it...
Only Joking just thought it should be here too
Not because I just sell Rexon I personally think it is good value for money I have had alot of happy customers mainly DIY enthusiasts as this is the market Rexon is aimed at. Although they are up and comming with some great new products

Great There is no websites with any reviews on Rexon that I have seen so that would be great.
Please also leave a review on our website if you would be so kind
Thanks |

I did indeed - though issue may be too strong a word for it.
FYI, powertoolz, I have a Rexon BD150BQ Belt / Disc Sander 230V
and the sanding disc is secured by a grub screw tighted by an allan key and it undid itself - and getting it back in there to retighten was a right PITA - once done, it was fine again .............
except now it came loose again  I know now how to retighten and will probably use some of that stuff you put on screws to keep them in place (sliplock? lockthread? copperslip? what is it called  ) this time round.
Apart from that, I like it a lot

| Never heard of this sort of thing. At least it's not so bad they are a good little sander |

Not copper slip, you'll never get it locktite but it'll be a breeze to loosen and tighten and loosen and tighten even in extreme heat

just googled copperslip - it is for use with cars isn't it I think I had a small tube of it from way back when, but couldn't recall why
So a tiny bad of locktite on the tip of the grub screw (or thread?) will stop this undoing?

Copperslip is essential on stainless nuts and bolts

Copperslip is ideal for stopping brake squeal, slap some on the shimmy things called shims. They sit between the calliper and the pad, copper slip is used as it will withstand the heat when standard grease would just melt and slip or burn off.
Another useless piece of information.
Boy I do worry about myself sometimes and I know I'm not alone in that, which can, in some small ways, be quite comforting.

Is that to stop catalytic effects?

No, not to stop any bimetalic corrosion, ptfe or epdm washers are normally used for that.
Stainless fasteners cause a lot of friction between themselves, the heat, then makes them bind up on each other. Especially if your using them with impact wrenches etc. They can get so tight the only way is to cut the bolt and replace.
