RC-1 Press Fit Retaining Compound

This is excellent for coding the two surfaces that need to be press fit together. In my case, it was a vintage American bottom bracket on a 1983 profile champ pro frame and I also used it on the headset when I pressed in an OG HATTA headset

I had doubts about using it. I Used it with primer as recommended. The stuff locks in quickly like glueing pvc piping . I used it on carbon cup and press fit head set because it was too loose. I though it would take time to set in but is was very fast. Luckily I planned carefully ahead of time.

Quality product. Must have for bike assembly.

Used this to install a pf92 bottom bracket. Applied primer to the carbon shell and then the retaining compound. Creak free so far.

Quick, easy, and effective. FYI, I used it when installing BB92 press fit on a steel frame fat bike.

Used product for bonding of bike press fit Bottom Bracket.

Great stuff

The product worked perfectly to quiet a bottom bracket which has plagued me for years. I tried a wheels manufacturing screw together (which still didn't work), but the retaining compound did its job. My press fit shell was also quite worn, and I could press in my bearings by hand. UPDATE: After about 2 days since the application all of the creaking returned to the BB. Seems like the product works, but there is some limit. Some issues might just require a new frame is the bottom bracket shell is worn enough.
