    I am repairing a crossover in some PMC's that were damaged during transit. Three of the inductors have been ripped off the PCB, see photo.

    [​IMG]

    What type of glue is used to glue these back on - is there a generic name for it?

    I already have the plastic ties that wrap around the inductor after glueing.

    Any help much apreciated.

    Simple hot glue should do.

    Ha, ha....They're the least of my problems at the minute.

    Getting a bloody set of speakers delivered in one piece would be nice for a change.

    As already mentioned, hot melt glue is what's usually used. Zip-ties are also good for holding down heavy components.
