Help with lose cable slide.

I just wondered if anyone has a quick fix for a lose cable slide. I have the set screw tightened about as far as I want to go, but I still have some play in it. I was thinking about putting some silicon caulk in it, but thought I'd check here to see if anyone else had the same problem before.

Thanks for all the help, well I put a little gun loc tight down inside. Tightened everything down and will let it dry for a few days.

I just saw it Bobco...too late I guess, but JB Weld is supposed to be good, and on Carbon Rods I've used 24 hour epoxy with good results.

i used some 'zapper' glue on mine when it wouldn't stay put and didn't have a problem with it after that.

RE: Help with lose cable slide.

I was thinking of glueing or epoxying it, however, I was a little concerned about the permancy of it. The loc tite that I used is suppose to remain flexible and it made to withsatnd the shock and impact of guns. We'll see I guess.
