First off, you should avoid using absolutes like "everyone knew", because, invariably, someone does not know.

Secondly, be very careful about reccomending loctite. Know your application and the type of loctite so that you can guage the reaction. Test on a sample (NOT ON THE ROBOT) to ensure compatability.

*note* I believe that Loctite is a good idea for this application, but please make sure that the type of loctite you use is compatable with the plastics and vynal wire coverings.
