Ive always used quick dry epoxy. Ive never used anything else. That is for carbons. For aluminums I use Ferr ltite.

Id suggest looking on Ebay. I just bought a dozen terminators shafts. No need to get them with inserts if you dont want the inserts that are in them. I bought a dozen shafts for 45 bucks.


I personally would not try to drill out the old inserts. Any compromise in the carbon can cause some nasty results. Not worth going to the hospital to have carbon splinters pulled out of your hand.
