gänglåsning eller låsvätska?

Ung. lika många Google-träffar, är det bara en fråga om tycke och smak, eller finns det etablerat? På Loctites svenska sidor använder de gänglåsning/gänglåsningsprodukter, men det behöver ju inte betyda att det är bäst.

Gänglåsning eller Låsvätska

Gänglåsning = Thread locking

In this case, the name doesn't describe how the thread is locked, just that it is locked (can also be with a split pin, plastic nut inset etc.)

Låsvätska = Locking fluid

In this case the manner is evident, but not the subject (i.e. it doesn't have to be a thread).

You can presumably deduce from the context of your text which applies in your case.
