I have several of Magnivision Titanium reading glasses. They are by

There is just one little problem. The nose piece and the side pieces
are attached to the lenses with tiny bolts with a tiny nut on the
inside. Over time (few months), these work loose. If I catch them soon
enough, I can tighten them and they will stay put for another few
months. If I am too slow, the glasses fall apart.
The ones for the nose piece are much more likely to loosen, probably
because they get wiggled more.
I have tried superglue, but it really doesn't hold.
Can anyone recommend a way to secure these nuts? If it is permament,
so much the better. I don't know why they don't use rivets. I will
never want to loosen these nuts.
Hi,
Dap of Krazy glue won't do?
Is Krazy glue different from superglue?
No. It is worthless brittle tempermental stuff. On a screw, you
could count on the micron roughness on the metalic surfaces to be more
than it can bridge. Gorilla glue might work, but locktight is
designed for exactly this application.
