Gluing TPU
Gluing TPU
(OP)
Looking for adhesive recommendations.
I need to glue a TPU (thermoelastic polyurethane) pad to a piece of aluminum. I'd prefer if the adhesive could maintain its bond up to TPU's max working temp of 200 deg.
Any suggestions?

It is better to have enough ideas for some of them to be wrong, than to be always right by having no ideas at all.

I thought of Gorilla Glue but wasn't sure how it would work due to the fact that Gorilla Glue expands when setting up.

Was just wondering if anyone has done something similar and could offer real world advice.
