I like to use the stuff that comes in 2 separate tubes rather than the plunger type because I can better control the amount that I mix together.
I can make sure the amounts are equal. Four years later the club is still together. I haven't tried to take it apart but I have no plans to do so. I also bought some new clubs on eBay and at the end of the description the seller stated that he had a set of Bridgestone iron heads along with a set of DG shafts that came with the clubs I actual wanted so I glued those up as well using the same method.
They haven't had much use, maybe 3 rounds and few trips to the range but about two years later they still seem fine. I think I did a fair job of sanding the shaft and inside the hosel though. You can post now and register later.

The best part is that this epoxy is resilient too, which is necessary for torsional forces inside the hosel. Gorilla Epoxy is, in my opinion, the best golf shaft epoxy substitute.
G25 I let it set 24 hours at room temperature and after the 5th swing in started slipping. Used on a driver Claims to stand up to psi. I do not use it for graphite shafts though because it doesn't break down without alot of heat and it is pretty tough to save a graphite shaft when pulling it. For graphite, always use an epoxy that breaks down at degrees or less.
I will typically use Golfworks epoxies for graphite, but I have used the Gorilla epoxy with no problems. Is there an equivalent that I can find in a hardware store? It seems from a search that 5 minute epoxy is not adequate. How about the slow cure 24 hour epoxy? Is it the same or is there some special characteristic to golf club epoxy? Thank you. Here's the real reason why. In the building of a golf club the ONE area in which the clubmaker has legal liability is in the attachment of the clubhead to the shaft.
If the head or shaft "blow up" and cause personal or property damage that results in litigation, the original makers of the heads and shafts are liable - not the clubmaker. But if a head flies off a shaft and causes personal or property damage that results in litigation, the clubmaker is liable - no one else. I use the 24 hour epoxy for every build, never had a problem and I have built hundreds of clubs.
Only time I ever had an issue was with the 5 min epoxy, not sure if got a bad batch or not but almost all the clubs came apart a few days later. Have steered clear of the 5 min stuff since. After being a PGA member for 13 years and being close friend with multiple guys in the vans, I have always used the same stuff one of the builders turned me onto years ago.

Pepsi debate so "to each his own". I know this thread is old, but I found this product I've seen this in packets marked 90m also - still called "standard". Widely available. It's plenty strong enough - no worries there. I use it on steel shafts, where it requires a little extra heating. I wouldn't use it on graphite. I've never been able to find a reliable source of data for its characteristics, and I have looked.

What can I use for shaft glue? Having said that i'd be interested to know the difference if any between shaft epoxy and the regular epoxy from a hardware store. Gorilla glue for clubmaking? Anyway, the product has some good features: no mixing, cures in 3 hours and strong as hell.
I will experiment on some old clubs after the end of golf season and report back if I have any success. One can ask any average golfer about some of his or her most challenging shots and one will hear about things like hitting out of weeds and long grass and rescuing balls from water hazards. Bonding golf clubs with epoxy adhesive - Permabond Offer www. One such application is that of bonding heads onto shafts for golf clubs.
