rubber to metal adhesive

Post by YMJ »

HELP!

Need to bond front rubber bump stop to the metal base. Evostik IMPACT adhesive? What else will do the job?

Yes, yes, I know I should fit a new one but I'm against the clock, here! :cry:

Superglue is very hard to beat for this type of application.

Evostick would be absolutely USELESS for an applicatio like this.

Superglue is the one to use, they do a flexible version specifically for sticking rubber to metal Too!

That's good to know although the Evostik job lasted a full(ish) track day at Silverstone on Friday :D

Instead of glue I sawed up an old motor mount and made a buffer to the size I needed.
