Default appropriate adhesive?

I'm finally getting back around to fixing up my little die filer. Its
chuck is pretty munged after years of having files jammed into it, and
it doesn't work right anymore (i.e. doesn't hold the file parallel with
the shaft). I figure I'll mill away the "fixed jaw" and make a hardened
shim and glue it on. There will be little stress on the glue joint as
it will be held in compression, but there will be some. I'll be gluing
a ground surface to a milled one. Would cyanoacrylate (superglue) be
the right stuff to use?
