Re: flywheel magnets

I would use a two part epoxy rather than the 5200. You can find several types at Walmart or Pep Boys.

Hope this helps,

John

Thank you, is the west system considered a 2-part epoxy?

Re: flywheel magnets

My magnet came off during removal of the flywheel. Since the magnet was held on via contact cement, that's what I used to reattach it. So far...been working with no probs.

Re: flywheel magnets

I am not familar with the west system so I can't give you an answer. Another poster mentioned contact cement. I would make sure you clean it the flywheel and magnet well if you use that. Also, try to get the gel contact cement. It stays on better.
