Gluing SS 304/316 to Polyurethane

thread327-134367

Gluing SS 304/316 to Polyurethane

Gluing SS 304/316 to Polyurethane

(OP)
I was contemplating building my own motor mounts, using a polyurethane(Shore 90)rod turned on a lathe to the right diameter bushing and embedding two SS threaded rods at either end.

Undersized holes would be drilled at either end of the polyurethane bushing, the appropriate glue introduced and then the threaded SS rods screwed down the same.

Will it work ? Which glue ?  

RE: Gluing SS 304/316 to Polyurethane

If you are going to all that trouble why not use a two pack PU system and mould insitu?

Thanks rnd2.

No trouble at all to drill (machine) an undersized hole for a SS threaded rod - as easy as saying cheese !

But should I decide for the 2-pack PU solution, what material is the mould to be made of  ?

Will it be reusable ?

RE: Gluing SS 304/316 to Polyurethane

Just about any material would do as long as it is coated with a release agent. The PU distributor should be able to recommend the most appropriate one.
