Howdy All, a few post back the guys where talking about Blue Loctite/theadlocker tasting like sugar. The tube states that we are to avoid getting on our skin or eating it. That is because is contains Cyanide compunds. That is the sweet taste. It is not a good idea to injust this stuff. A lump the size of a matchhead is supposed to be enough to kill an adult. Motorcycling has enough dangers without adding new ones. Guess I should say "Don't drink the Kool-Aid !!!!" Regards, Tim

Uh.... the mere presence of a nitrile group in a compound does not indicate significant formation of toxic cyanide ion. Mark

The xB ion is more toxic than the xA ion. Walt

I would like to replace the majority with stainless and possibly a different head configuration. Thanks [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
