I have Taylormade P790 heads and TrueTemper S200 steel shafts. I previously had the shafts installed in PSi heads without any issues. Now, the epoxy routinely loosens and the head moves on the shaft. I’ve tried 3 different kinds of epoxy; the latest is GolfWorks EXP1.
Any suggestions on how to stop this phenomenon.
Agreed it is not an epoxy problem if what your using is mixed properly. Something in the fit, the prep and/or the cleanliness of the two surfaces is my bet for what’s causing the problem. No matter what epoxy you use, the hosel has to be clean and the shaft tip should be as well. We formulate our epoxies and use them every day in our own club assembly. I have not tested the DP 420 NS, nor had it tested, so I can’t comment on it’s effectiveness for this application. I am sure it would work as well and if 3M says club manufacturers use it, I will have to take their word on it. Again, we don’t have any information to compare.
