Best adhesive for woodchipper blades?

[xor0]

I need to change the blades on a chipper, what is the best metal adhesive to use on the bolts of the new blades? Thanks.

OK, when I bought it they told me to use a blowtorch to release the glue when I changed the blades. And to use a metal adhesive for the new ones.

You want locktight, it’s pretty much supper glue, you put a little on the threads before fitting the studs or nuts. Any decent iron monger or the like should have it, it comes in different grades. I don’t use it on my chipper, but see no reason why you couldn’t.

This. Follow the manufacturer instructions, some recommend loctite and some don't.
