I wouldn't use any kind of silicone sealants. If for no other reason the stuff is not rigid when it cures. They make a world of two part (I guess) epoxy type products like someone mentioned J-B Weld. But I wouldn't have thought of that. I would go for the plastic two part stuff or maybe better yet super glue.

The sockets get loose often from being not so gingerly separated when the set has been worked on. You have to hold the plug on the end of a c.r.t. tightly and gently wiggle the socket off. A shot of WD-40 or any other penetrating oil on the pins helps. If it's still stubborn, you can gently wedge with a medium screw driver working your way around the circumference.
