Hello Everyone,

I am bonding a higher strength neodymium magnet to an engine oil drain plug. The Magnet is Nickel plated and the plug is 6061-T6. It's an air cooled motor so the engine temp will see around 235-265F depending on conditions.

I would like to use a room cure adhesive for convenience but I think adhesives that cure at lower temperatures will not like the higher operating temperature. I was thinking I should pick a "Hi Temp" Epoxy and just get a cheap toaster-oven or something to try and cure the adhesive. I don't want something that cures at a super high temp because I want to anodize the plugs and I am afraid the higher temps might ruin the color of the anodizing. Also, I think going beyond 300 degrees (ish) will also ruin the magnet I purchased.

Thanks for any suggestions.
