See no n.g. for adhesives & epoxies, so if there's a better forum for this,
just point me to it.

I need an epoxy that is strong to the point of brittle. I want no flex; it
has to transmit vibration as close to 100% as possible.

Am I looking for a high Shore Hardness value? That's what Devcon uses in its
data sheets to specify hardness.

Is this something that I can achieve by changing the mix of the 2 parts? If
so, what do I lose if I use more hardener?

Any personal experiences with epoxies that you found to be harder than
others?

Thanks.

Dunno if it's tough enough but I use GR epoxy glue from Industrial
Formulations.
24 hour cure. (Sometimes a pita.)

"We have an epoxy system for almost any project".
Really?? :P

All I know is that GR epoxy has less flex than Lepage 2 page epoxy
(dual syringe) I got from the hardware store.
