jimmyb79 Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 I've got an Edgar Bros 9-13 swivel bipod which I've been very happy with, however, recently the screw which holds the tilt/swivel tight has started to loosen up and requires regular tightening when out shooting. Has anyone eel got experience of this bipod or can anyone offer advice on a fix? I'm not sure whether it's in warranty anymore as it's over a year old...

jimmyb79 Posted September 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 Probably a silly question but... Would that lock it in a position whereby I could still tilt it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 Add Loctite to the thread, tighten to how easy you want the bipod to swivel, then leave it dry. Loctite should stop the thread undoing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

station Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 Or use a rubber washer so that pinches tight and holds pressure on the screw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
