JB Weld 2 part epoxy would work best on bakelite I think. I used it on a bakelite part for a Hammond organ foot pedal. Gets lots of stress. Still holding after several years. Paul Doug Keller <dek@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: I have a thermostat/switch out of a circa 1928 refrigerator (it runs on ammonia). Anyway, the switch is bakelite and is broken. I need some suggestions as to what will hold bakelite back together the best. I was thinking hot glue perhaps? I don't trust superglue anymore. I don't care how off the wall your suggestion is, I will read it.
