tickertape Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) Anyone have an unused horn body available? The plastic horn body is what 'm looking to obtain. Edited May 7, 2021 by tickertape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shovelnose Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I hope you find a new horn. They can be tough to find sometimes. You could try mitre bond. I have used it for lots of things. It is really strong. Take the driver off and try it. Actually you may be able to leave the driver on and use it as weight. Mitre bond sets up in about 15 seconds so make sure you are aligned. https://www.amazon.ca/MitreBond-Aerosol-Activator-Superglue-Adhesive/dp/B01HR340QW . Good luck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbk Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Is it fixable, hard to tell from pic? Exopy and hard plastic strips from sides of speaker mount to horn body epoxy in? If. you take horn off is there a lip? Maybe drill four small holes glue and screw together or glue in four dowel pins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absolve2525 Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 As others have mentioned, it looks very fixable. Keep us updated! I enjoy my KLF 30s very much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tickertape Posted May 8, 2021 Author Share Posted May 8, 2021 It fits back together well and cleanly. We've been discussing a repair method in the General forum under Broken horn, ever seen ths happen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay L Posted May 8, 2021 Share Posted May 8, 2021 Permatex Plastic Bonder 2 part epoxy should fix you up, just let it cure for 24 hours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find Permatex Plastic Welder, which is a 2-part epoxy, and Permatex Plastic Bonder, which appears to be a cyanoacrylate activator. Both products are new to me. Anybody have experience with either? I don't have a broken KLF 30, but this might be good general info. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The correct product to use should be Plastic Welder.Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tickertape Posted May 29, 2021 Author Share Posted May 29, 2021 Still would prefer a replacement horn body. Just need the body, not the driver. Projects are piled high right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular superglue would probably hold you over until you can find a horn very simple repair just leave the driver attached and use for weight just be sure to clean off any extra glue that may run down inside the horn while its still fresh should tack up pretty quick and ready to use in a few hours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longdrive03 Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 If you glue it I would recommend installing a cross brace from the sides under the driver magnet and leave a gap and fill it with a stiff foam rubber brace to keep some or all of the drive weight off the broken joint. 1" x 3/4" cross brace a little narrower that inside cab dimension with two screw block on each side into cabinet and one bole with wing nut to secure brace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
