Are there any better options available than Loctite 271?
Purpose is to secure machine screws that hold the hinges together in my daughter's orthopedic leg braces.

Do you require the screws to come out ever once fixed?.
There are variants of loctite that after correct application will only come apart with modest heat.
Consider Loctite 603
Otherwise if the ends of the screws exit the nut/female thread, the ends can be peened over.
