Loctite 243 , or any other thread-locking fluid.

Only put it on the threaded hole on the link, never on the screw. And use less than you think you'll need.

Use low strength Loctite 221 or 222. Do NOT use "any thread locking fluid."

As above said, low strength only! ask your local hardware shop about, don't be shy.
We are dealing with forces smaller than 1Nm on threads that handle max 4Nm when "locking fluids" need over 5Nm to break them.

Can be applied with a needle inside the end of the female thread. No need for using more than 1/10 of a small drop.
