The biggest problem with sights and accessories is screws being overtightened.
People are shooting light arrows out of heavy weight bows that store a lot of
energy. The bow and accessories have to absorb the excess energy that is not
delivered to the arrow. In many cases the bow and accessories have to absorb
almost as much energy as the arrow. That causes excess vibration and screws to
come loose. People will tighten a screw as tight as they can thinking if tight
is good, then tighter must be better. They are taking a steel screw with a
turning ratio of as much as 32 turns per inch and screwing it into softer
aluminum. That leverage is similar to raising your deer off the ground with a
hoist that has 32 pulleys. That doesn’t take much effort. The result is that the
tremendous leverage of the steel screw will stretch the threads of the softer
aluminum. Aluminum has low elasticity so the threads will not snap back. Now
there is less friction between the threads so the part will not stay tight.
Tighten a screw until it stops and then tighten it a little more until you feel
a little more give. That give is the threads stretching. Those threads are now
ruined and the screw will never stay tight because of the gap between the
threads. You will not have a problem with screws coming loose if you use a small
amount of thread lock and just snug up the screws until they stop turning. Only
use a standard strength thread lock. You will not be able to get the screw out
again if you use the heavy duty thread lock. Be careful not to get thread lock
on any plastic parts. The thread lock will attack most plastics used in sights.
