Best adhesive for phenolic tips?

[Secaucus Fats]

I've heard different opinions on what adhesive works best when installing a phenolic tip. I normally use Duro Quick Gel for all tips but I was told that a phenolic tip would pop off unless epoxy is used as the adhesive, so I'm respectfully requesting the advice of the fine cuemakers here as to what works best.

Thanks in advance.

I just installed a phenolic tip on my break cue about 1 week ago. I used 5 min. epoxy. so far so good.

I like epoxy.
454 is a close second.

Check your PM's. I have something to send you.

Lord Cement is better than all above. But you have to leave it under pressure over night. It also costs $20 for a can. If you want some I bought several cans, because my phenolic tip customers were not having great success with other glues. I heard about the glue from part owner of Bunjee cues, Steve Lomax.

I have never had a tip come off with Loctite 454 so how can the stuff you sell be "better than all above" expecially when with Loctite 454 you can play with it immediately?
