You can use some Locktite, which is meant to secure metal screws.

I use the strong one for the screw that fixes the boat anchor to the chain... That one must NOT get loose. I use the light one to secure adjustment screws on my saxophone. They must stay adjustable but still move. I believe medium strength should be ideal for the tripod screw, but it helps if you check it on a regular basis.
