craig85 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) I have the centre caps for my wheels but all the clips are broken. As they're quite an old design I'm having real trouble finding another set. Is it OK to glue them on instead and if so, is there a best type of glue to use to put up with the vibrations?

Chris Wilson Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 I'd try Sikaflex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Just a smear will hold them on, yet they should tap off as well. Hot melt glue might work, too. Depends how much of a work out you give the brakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig85 Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 Awesome, thanks for the help, I'll give sikaflex a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evinX Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Go down brown brothers in st james and get a tube of polyurethane, basically sikaflex but cheaper. Have you got the tabs? if so, get some wire mesh and melt the bits together and sink the mesh in and coat it all in araldite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig85 Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 No, they were just thrown in a box of parts. I think one of them is down to two tabs out of 8, they're in a bit of a state to be honest. I've placed an order with Amazon for tomorrow so I'll give it a go, if they ping off at some point then I just have fewer parts knocking around the house Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
