Superglue?

[Nathanman]

Many a post starts with the statement "this may be a silly question" but this really may be one that fits the description. I have a kanger tank. Recently the top plastic mouthpart came away from the metal screw-on that screws on to the barrel. This resulted in a little gap that has allowed the e-juice to go into the airhole that you inhale through (stem?) Sorry, I don't know all the terms.
In my infinite wisdom I decided to glue the part back on securely with superglue. Am I doing myself any harm? I have since ordered a mini nova so I'm waiting for it to turn up. In the meantime will the glue give off any fumes that may be harmfully or pollute the flavour.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, so long as the glue has fully cured, you should be OK

I have let it dry for well over 24 hours so I'm hoping it will do till my tank turns up. Thanks.

Used it many times on my own T2's. As said, let it dry thoroughly (don't wanna glue your lips to the mouthpiece!). Just keep super glue use to a minimum. Removing the excess is a hassle, and it will also cause clouding of the plastic surrounding it.

Great. As long as I'm not going to keel over because of the fumes. Thanks for the advice.

PG is a solvent and may break-down the glue. If you only used a drop or two, I wouldn't be worried about it. It just may not hold-up long.

Thanks dougiestyle. As long as it holds till my mini nova turns up I'll be happy. I've got an ego t cone and carts if it does go belly up but for some reason I can't get a good Vape through them so would rather not use them.

I use tons of superglue when I do woodworking and use it as a finish for driptips. It is an acrylic resin compound that cures in the presence of moisture. When fully cured it is nontoxic and perfectly safe to have in contact with juice. Check it out on wikipedia and search their sources to verify if you want. Its is found under its chemical name cyanoacrylate A.K.A. CA

Heck they use superglue/ not called superglue, but same thing ) in dentistry and actually in emergency surgery. I would assume if it is used to fix a crown in your mouth it will be okay on your temporary fix.

I am a hairstylist and I use it to clue cuts closed when I happen to cut my finger! Same stuff they use in new skin.
