Epoxy, glue, loctite gear to shaft. Any chance of working?
I need to get a gear affixed onto a shaft. We have broken two of them trying to press fit it. We do not have anybody to TIG weld it. (The best we can do is flux cored wirefeed, and that becomes questionable). Is there any commercially available product that will bond the gear to the shaft? Both gear and shaft are steel and the diameter of the shaft is 3/8" The gear is in a drive system gearbox. Two small CIMs are geared down 12:45 to this shaft on which the gear in question resides.
