If you want extra assurance you can always put a locking nut on top of it
Yuupp, good idea. Also the NC isn't exposed to anything until main deploy, that's usually so close to the ground there isn't that much time for it to unscrew.
I don't use them on my av-bay, but I know others do & they seem to work just fine.

I cut my vent band in half, wasn't going to use it at all, but it fits so nice decided to keep it, but smaller.
Often overlooked is pre-fitting the parts. If you have been doing glass awhile ya probably figured that one out. Take some time to try each end of coupler into fincan, then payload. Many times it will work a specific orientation better that the other. Sometimes one end of payload works better for NC fit than the other.
My vent band definitely goes one edge best to fincan & the other to payload. Same for coupler.
Make sure to mark them so ya can tell later.
I could barely see the joint when I finally got the Vent band oriented after much twisting to fit. I knocked off a high spot or two with sandpaper to get the final result. It was worth it.
