As per title, what glue do people suggest.
(Evo-stick doesn't work- it does't adhere to the rubber.)
Thanks

Gluing Butyl Rubber to metal

Apparently cyanoacrylate (superglue) will bond to butyl rubber, but it depends on the strength that you need.
Superglue should work, or a one pack polyurethane like Gorilla Glue.
I once reglued some portable generator/motor mounts that had separated at the rubber to metal interface.
Not sure if it is still available but I used Bostik 2402 which (iirc) is also used for wetsuit repair. To all intents and purposes it looked and smelled like evostik, just costs a damn sight more but still worked out much cheaper than buying new ones and the mounts are still ok many years later.
CA certainly sticks to butyl..try it. May work.
