Hi JJ,

You could try some Loctite threadlock on it. This is a polymer which cures in the presence of metal and absence of air (in the thread). There are various grades, some permanent, some for occasional disassembly. The 248 grade can be disassembled with hand tools and without having to apply heat.

Cheers
