Choose the Right System for Your Golf Club Repair

Different repairs require different epoxy properties — working time, strength, and gap-filling. Match your job with the right system.

Shaft Installation

Best for: Installing shafts into iron, driver, and wood heads

  • Bonds shaft tip inside hosel
  • Handles high swing force and torque
  • Works for steel and graphite shafts
  • Critical for new builds and assembly

Re-Shafting & Club Repair

Best for: Replacing broken shafts or reattaching heads

  • Removes old epoxy and rebonds securely
  • Restores original performance
  • Prevents head loosening over time
  • Ideal for repair shops and pro shops

Tip Weight & Internal Bonding

Best for: Securing weights and stabilizing internal components

  • Locks tip weights inside hosel
  • Prevents rattling and movement
  • Supports swing weight adjustments
  • Ensures clean, solid internal structure

Before & After

Slide to compare a detached golf club head vs a properly bonded repair using structural epoxy.

  • Before: Club head separated from shaft (hosel failure / broken bond)
  • After: Head securely reattached, aligned, and ready for use

FAQ

Common Questions

Common questions about adhesives for shaft installation, head bonding, and club assembly.

Use a 2-part structural epoxy designed for high impact and shear strength.

  • CEC C-Tough Epoxy → best for maximum strength + vibration resistance
  • CEC S20 Epoxy → balanced working time + strength
  • CEC E20 Epoxy → faster workflow, general repairs

Avoid CA glue — it’s too brittle for shaft bonding.

Apply epoxy in two critical zones:

  • Inside the hosel (club head socket)
  • Around the shaft tip (last 1–2 inches)

Then insert and rotate the shaft to ensure full coverage and no air gaps.

  • Initial set: 20–30 minutes (depends on product)
  • Play-ready: 12–24 hours

For best performance, always wait full cure before hitting balls.

  • Weak bond formation
  • Shaft twisting or loosening
  • Potential head detachment during swing

This is one of the most common failure causes.

Yes — prep determines bond strength. Required steps:

  • Sand the shaft tip (remove coating)
  • Clean shaft + hosel with solvent (acetone)
  • Remove old epoxy completely

Poor prep = bond failure, even with high-quality epoxy.

All three work, but selection depends on stress level:

  • Graphite shafts → CEC C-Tough Epoxy (better impact absorption)
  • Steel shafts → CEC S20 Epoxy or CEC E20 Epoxy

Graphite benefits from tougher, less brittle epoxy.

Yes — epoxy is gap-filling, which is critical because tolerances vary.

  • Use slightly more epoxy if fit is loose
  • Ensure full coverage without overflow

This is why epoxy is preferred over other adhesives.

Yes, but in small amounts:

  • Ferrules → light coating for stabilization
  • Tip weights → epoxy locks them inside hosel

Do not rely on epoxy alone for weight tuning.

Common causes:

  • Poor surface prep (most common)
  • Incorrect mix ratio
  • Not enough cure time
  • Using low-strength adhesive

Solution: proper prep + correct epoxy like CEC C-Tough Epoxy.

  • CEC C-Tough Epoxy — Maximum strength, best for high-impact builds and graphite shafts
  • CEC S20 Epoxy — Balanced working time + strength, ideal for most club builds
  • CEC E20 Epoxy — Faster handling, best for repairs and quick turnaround

Choose based on working time + strength requirement.
