Crow Hunter Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 I want to put a different jag on the ramrod from my muzzleloader, but it is really stuck- I contacted CVA and they said they use red threadlocker on the threads. Do I need to heat the jag with a propane torch to break it loose? Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leech~~ Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 (edited) Try a heat gun or hair drier first. Then move to hotter open flame tools. Edited April 2, 2021 by leech~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow Hunter Posted April 2, 2021 Author Share Posted April 2, 2021 Good idea, thanks. I will try a hair dryer first, then the heat gun. It would be good to not put a flame to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roony Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Soldering iron can be a good option for loosening up loctite. leech~~ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
