VC-3for KNIVES

The ADJUSTABLE & REUSABLE threadlocker for knives

Add VC-3 to your knife handle and clip fasteners to keep them from coming loose.

What it does

  • As a knife threadlocker, VC-3 acts like a shock absorber, isolating the screw from the frame while damping vibration.
  • Prevents the screw from rotating loose, yet always remains flexible allowing it to be adjusted, removed, and reused.

Why it works

Vibra-Tite VC-3 Threadmate is one of the most versatile knife threadlockers available on the market. Unlike traditional liquid lockers which cure to form a hard bond, VC-3 is a blend of resins designed to remain flexible and absorb vibration. This unique difference makes VC-3 coated fasteners truly adjustable, removable, and reusable.
