[Mgs] loctite question - (Mgs Digest, Vol 68, Issue 5)

[Stephen West-Fisher]

I'm not sure of the original premise, my experience is that torque specs are
given as dry clean threads unless stated otherwise. The addition of Loctite
or lubricant requires a reduction in torque or the fastener will be
over-stressed.

But can oiled threads be locked with loctite.

Torque specs are usually given for oiled threads.
