Hi
I am trying to bond a small piece of flat 2mm pre oreg carbon fibre to the side of a 5mm diameter carbon fibre rod and want to know what the strongest possible bonding method I should use.
The part once finished will have daily force put on it so really needs to be super strong.
I am considering using the ET-500 adhesive but not sure if that would be strong enough.
Any advice?
Thanks
Aysar

As Dravis said,
VuduGlu™ VM100 Black
is a great choice. However if you need something with less odour then our
PT326 20min Rigid Polyurethane Adhesive Twin Tube
is a very good alternative.
Remember to give both surfaces a good key and degrease to achieve the best bond. Also where the bonding surface area is small, it can help to use "fillets" of adhesive to increase the bonding surface area and hence bond strength.
