Is there a comparable substance like thread lock for electrical connections?

kevdog3019:
I've got some old spade type connectors on the Lario that pull off quite easily. Also, the neutral switch connection that slides into place also finds its way off. Wondering if there's some product that gives them some holding power without taking away the connection?

Triple Jim:
Maybe but a small blob of solder on the end so it has a hard time sliding back through (?)

crc:
I normally crimp the female spade carefully with pliers

rodekyll:
If they won't bend back down with pliars (and stay that way) they've softened, probably from heat.  In that case they should be replaced.  But no, there's no thread locker level of cure.

Rough Edge racing:
 Crimp on type connectors vary greatly in quality,.....T&B brand found in some electrical supply houses are usually high quality. Online vendors like Mouser have thousands of different types, many are specification grade.
