David,
surprised that you havn't come across this stuff - its been around for
years.
Locktight make a range of these engineering adhesives. The common one is a
blue fluid used extensively to stop nuts vibrating loose, but they also make
several grades of adhesive for associated applications.
One such is designed for fitting bearings and typical purpose would be to
prevent an outer race turning in its housing (eg for wheel hubs) This is
what I used for the 1500 thrust washers. I don't know if it made a
difference but it was easier than pinning and I didn't get any problems in
80,000 miles.
Someone will probably tell me it was the wrong thing to do though!
