I need Epoxys for Operating Temp of -40f to +150f

2004

I am assembling a product for the Oil & Gas industry and I need to glue a Aluminum Circular Connector into an Aluminum Tube approx. 1" in dia. This product needs to operate at -40f to 150f. What expoxy is recommended to work within these temps? The volumes will be large so I need data before I specify the correct epoxy manufacture.

I have looked at the 3M web site but can not find data on these operating temps.

Try MasterBond.com. I seem to recall an ad for an adhesive good from liquid Helium temperature thru 300 or 400 F.
