I never had any issues with the steel one, but my almost identical Dean Ti one needed Loctite bearing fitting compound to stay in place. The current product is probably 270.
As discussed previously, posts where the clamp goes through the round window work best for riders whose weight vector passes as close as possible to the axis of the cylinder. If you're substantially eccentric, you might never get it to work satisfactorily and should probably change to a different design.
