Red Loctite (requires heat to remove) would likely hold it just fine On it’s own. Even blue loctite probably would.

Red loctite and jam nuts together on either side of the coupler would be very unlikely to come loose.

Does red loctite still come in a blue bottle?

Another option is superglue. If you ever want to remove it, a little heat from a propane torch is all that's needed to make the superglue release its bond.

Some of the blue loctite versions are cyanoacrylate glues. Superglue (the brand) also makes threadlocker.

And in a pinch, nail polish. Never would have thought I needed that info, but some day you might. Came in handy for me once

Blue locktite with a tightend nut is pretty tough, I think I would hold just fine. Has held on my heavy duty bike for like a year now, with similar twisting a ton from a trailer. It is wheels on a table, I thing you are good with countered nuts to be honest, they get super tight and don't separate.
