A tiny blob of something really viscous (so it won't crawl up into the
threads by capillary action) like 5 minute epoxy or JB weld would
probably work. You could test it on a nut and bolt the same diameter to
make sure it isn't too hard to remove.

Hi Pete. Have you considered using a *tiny *amount of Loctite 222
(purple) low strength on a small section of the threads?

Not on the threads, but on the nut and either the back side cable, or,
more commonly, the remaining exposed threads or the flange or chassis.
It doesn't take much to prevent vibration and/or thermal cycling from
loosening the nut. A little blob is all it takes.
