Zhanchi Tension fixing

Hey guys recently I've been having a problem with my Zhanchi.

The tension keeps loosening after a couple solves and then after
like 20 solves, it pops and i have to tighten the tension again.

So I have to bring a screw driver everywhere to fix my Zhanchi
and it gets annoying to fix it every 10 mins.

If anyone can help please reply so i can fix my problem.

One my thing, should i use torpedoes in my Zhanchi?

Thanks, DanCube

Use thread-lock (nutlock / studlock etc). Choose one of the less fierce types, so you can still adjust it afterwards. Remove the screw from the core, put in a drop of lock, re-insert the screw to the tightness you like, then leave it 1 - 2 days.

Get a new core, and yes, you should definitely use torpedoes. If you don't think it's worth getting a new core, then buy a new cube.
