Hello all,
I am having a little difficulty keeping a plastic fitting from woodcraft onto my alluminum Blastgate.I tried latex caulk but it came off with a little pressure.Should I go with silicon or should I try and tighten it up with a little duct tape?

Marc Gorilla tape works great. I didn't glue any of my connections, just gave them a wrap of gorilla tape. Hard to remove, but possible. I have had to move a few tools during my latest upgrade.

Unfortunately Bruce there is no room to tape.The plastic fitting goes around the aluminum Blastgate wich only has about 3/4 of an inch of surface.Originally Posted by Bruce Pennell

Marc.....I pop riveted mine and then sealed the gaps with aluminum foil tape.

How about a couple of self tapping screws through the fitting into the aluminum blast gate? Seal off the fitting with caulk if you wish. A mechanical connection will work better than an adhesive.
