I need a very strong epoxy that will stick to Chrome Steel 52100, and the aluminum that our honda engines are made of. I want to stay away from JB weld. This is hold an after market bearing into a race. The race is the AL of the engine and the outer part of the bearing is chrome steel. the bearing does press in will alittle interference but i need some extra security. Would also be nice if it would withstand moderate head and oil/gas

thanks in advance for all the help

 

I'd probably use loctite bearing mount.

that stuff is nuts.

Is this a top secret project? There's a few ways of holding a bearing in place. I might be way off on this.. but it's hard without a picture



here's an easy way to do it if there is minimal thrust load on the bearing.

edit: what i meant was "low head cap screw".. that just seems to be the type of screw they use for this purpose.

 

how much press do you have on it now? If you want more you can always take a sharp pointed punch and put a few dimples in the bore to raise the surface up a bit.
