Epoxy Door Hinge Failure

[MikeM670]

Thanks everyone for your replies. Sorry I did not get back sooner. Each one of these options looks good. I do have gorilla glue on hand. I'll think about that. I'm very intrigued by the plastic welder but not sure exactly how that works. Is the Duramix a permanent adhesive?

If both hinge and tank are acrylic based plastics, would suggest trying Weld-On 40. It's made to produce high strength bonds and is used in building large aquariums.

Carlos,

Just the hinge is acrylic. The frame is that standard black plastic frame material of fish tanks.

Yes Duramix is perminant. It is an autobady glue and comes in a variety types for different uses.

I found this product at the auto store. Permapoxy Plastic Weld. Was not as easy to use as the epoxy I had before and the application was not as neat as before but will see if it holds up. I had to reinstall the door while the unit was in place so that didn't help with keeping things neater!
