Thread Starter 
My computer shutsdown when windows starts to load, I found that the problem is due to Standoff which came apart from the motherboard

The Standoff was used to screw the CPU heatsink to motherboard. I'm thinking of gluing it back using some strong adhesive

So Could some one please suggest a good adhesive to glue the Standoff to motherboard
The adhesive should be strong to hold standoff firmly, as its used to screw cpu heat sink which would excert some pulling pressure to the standoff

any Help would be highly aprreciated!
Thanks in advance

here is sample picture of the standoff which came aprat from the motherboard

Thanks for the response
but i reffered the FAQ for liquid nail and it states

"Liquid Nails adhesives cannot be used to bond two non-porous surfaces together (i.e. metal to metal)."


I want the bond be really strong cuz its used to hold the heatsink which would excert constant pressure to the standoff....and it should not come off easily

I am wondering which adhesive PCB manufuaturers are using to glue them

You could try hot-glue. It won't interfere with the circuitry either.

Minature glue, as in the glues that are used to glue minatures like warhammer and whatnot together?

But wont hot glue melt some portion of the material and leave some kind of mark on the metal .

What about using steel epoxy. ??

The color of the adesive used by the PCB manufacutre is Metallic gray . I wonder which adhesive it is ?

Regular arts & crafts hot glue won't melt or damage any of your components.
