** CA glues are not weak of themselves.

The material sets harder than most glues, like contact adhesive or rubber/silicone glue.

Beside fast curing, the big advantage of CA glue is how it whets and penetrates into small gaps and pores in a materials before setting.

**GOOD QUALITY CA glue is an excellent product for a variety of uses.
This is the stuff I've been using:

Of particular interest is this stuff (Pascofill):

It allows for the building of fillets, thus making VERY strong joints,
when only small surface area is available. Since the Pascofix glue ran
out, I switched to Loctite, which I find excellent.
