Be loose or on loose

Is loose and tight the correct adjectives? Would you say "cap is loose/tight" or "is on loose/tight"?
How would you phrase the sentence?

This cap is (on) loose the pen. The cap keeps falling off. Try this cap. It'll be (on) tighter / (stay) on tighter and not as be loose.

Thanks

Could you tell me if this works? Is it correct?

The wheels of the stroller sound like they are (on) loose and that they will come off the ax.

Thank you

As shown. I would not use "on" in that sentence. It suggests they were mounted on the stroller loose.
