    Default glue for handle hardware ?????

    The hardware on my handle just fell into the water, any ideas on what adhesive i should use to glue it back on. The rod is a bllt boron/graphite. Is there anything i definitely shouldn?t use? I have never built a rod and believe in asking people that know before i do something stupid. Thanks for your help.

    Any two part epoxy will work just fine. Hardware store 5min, 10min, 30min....whatever you find locally that is two part is okay to use.

    I was recently in the market for epoxy shopped Walmart and Home Depot, neither had anything with over a 5 minute setting time. Who sell 30 min. these days beside online?

    Jesse my local Hardware stores such as Ace and Aco both have 30min. If you have one of those nearby check them out.

    That Devcon will work just fine. I've used a lot of that on grips. Just don't waste any time putting things together.
