What you using it for?

If you're pranking, I suggest:

Top: Best for sleeping eyelids.
Middle: Best for sticking a pound coin to the pavement.
Bottom: Best for the toilet seat joke, always a winner.

haha...

it's for a polo mallet, so it will need to hold heavy impacts.
So nothing to brittle

Gorilla glue is strong

Two-part expoxy (Araldite in this case) is about as reliable as you're likely to get, IME. If you want to reinforce the joins a bit further, you might like to try two-part epoxy putty as a sort of fillet.

Plastic to wood? Or wood to wood?

Wood to wood you need wood glue. Plastic to wood your contact adhesive might work but gorilla glue is a better choice - bonds most plastics but not polyprop or poly ethylene.

plastic to metal

Araldite

Anthracite

oh, sorry... wrong thread.

from your selection araldite i reckon

Yeah, probably Araldite. Make sure you mix it just right or it will end up brittle. Clean the contact surfaces with rubbing alcohol before you apply the glue.

should it be equal part of both???

should it be equal part of both???

Yep, that's the usual rule.

And check what sort of plastic you're using. Polypropylene and polyethylene are a nightmare.

staligmite

Araldite is the business... the Precise (6 hour) version is holding my polo drivetrain in place perfectly (front trials crank to cog on thread-bare hub).

JB WELD if you can find it

for plastic???

I know where you can find it, but always thought was for metals only

If you make surfaces rough and or small cuts/holes (that do not go through or weaken) that will help joining unlike materials esp. plastics/metals - you are giving a mechanical place to hold onto...

Middle ftw, epoxys are the strongest adhesives on the plants afaik

oh and JB Weld (impossible to get in this country) is also really good, oh wait im thinking of PL premium i think . . . that stuff is incredible strong. . .

I know where you can get it tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock, when the shops opens

so...

I used JB weld on my mallet where the bolt goes through the shaft (after my old mallet snapped there). I've played with it for a few weeks and the glue is starting to crack and fall off. Too brittle in my opinion.
