[RASMB] gluing guide into cell housing

[Laue, Thomas]

Hi-
Do not use cyanoacrylates. They are unstable (vaporize) in vacuum. Worse yet, they will deposit on surfaces (like lenses), leaving a film that is both UV opaque and hard to remove.

You might try cyano-acrylate (super glue).

Dear All,
I was wondering which glue is best to fit the guides into the cell housings?
I have several which fell off,  both from Beckman and SpinAnalytical.
I have tried 2-part Epoxy (Araldite) but it does not last. Of course, making the slot in the cell housing clean is also not so easy so it can be a problem with the bond itself.
Any  suggestions or tricks?
best regards, Dmitry
