Hi Bob: Based on your inputs a two part epoxy is exactly NOT what you want.
You'll never get 'em apart!
You probably won't be able to use a U/V reacted material unless the light
source can actually "see" the adhesive. Without seeing how the bondline and
mating surfaces go together it's hard to say.
If you need a dispensable one part that can be separated after cure then I
would consider something like Loctite 641 Retaining Compound. It's a medium
strength, room temperature cure, one part, dispensable that allows
disassembly. Again I'm not pushing Loctite, just an example.
You could also consider a bonding film such as 3M's or possibly a one
silicone part.

Hi Mike,
Thank you for the input, I am looking to dispense from a EFD dispenser, so
one part preferred. The main reason for bonding is to secure the cover to
the case, but still give the customer access to the unit if necessary. It is
a epoxy cured inverter and the casing is more for RF protection.
Thanks Bob
