repair to saucepans

[imigix]

Hope this is in correct section

I have a metal saucepan the handle has developed a slight " wiggle " on

its fixing. The handle seems to be made of hard type of plastic and it

pushes onto a short metal shaft 30mm by 8mm attached to the pan

I am thinking of applying a glue to it and this is my question it will have to

stand high temperature will apoxey glue be best ?

Many saucepan handles are fixed with a single screw, which periodically may need retightening.

Otherwise, by all means try to stop it wobbling with some epoxy, but you may not be able to find a large enough gap to squeeze the resin in, with the handle still attached.

In my own opinion, cheap saucepans which start to fall apart are best replaced with better quality pans.
