rotors with a particularly large amount of free movement.
I know that it's probably not an issue regarding the brake's functionality but feeling the rotor move on the spline with the brake locked still bothers me.
I don't think that should be happening at all. If the rotor is moving after its been tightened down, something isn't quite right. Can you take a picture to show whats happening?
TotalShanner-
It's a pretty common problem apparently.
For certain combinations of hubs and rotors the tolerance in the splined interface is quite sloppy... There are Centerlock adapters that fit securely onto the spline with a pinch bolt but they are hard to get and expensive. I would also need new 6-bolt rotors as well.
Hence the idea of removing the radial play with Loctite.PS: lockrings are tightened to 40 Nm, going up to the upper limit of 50 Nm doesn't fix the issue.

Question about Centerlock disc brake rotors:
I've got a combination of Centerlock hubs and rotors with a particularly large amount of free movement.
I know that it's probably not an issue regarding the brake's functionality but feeling the rotor move on the spline with the brake locked still bothers me.
Would a retaining compound like Loctite 638 be able to take up all the free space?
How difficult would it be to change the rotor once it is worn?
Do I need an activator or will it cure reasonably fast without one?
Has anyone even tried this method before?
