Usually a space heater consists of a fan mounted to a motor which is then mounted to a back plate. Connected to the back plate are reflective spacers that hold the heating element coils seperate from eachother so they don’t spark. Recently, I figured I’d repair my space heater after it started sparking instead of going and buying a new one. I opened it up to find the spacer plate which has several arms for holding 1-5 coiled wires. One of the arms was broken and the coils touched which is why it was sparking. Seeing as this is a heater, i’m fairly certain I can’t use a super glue or epoxy to fix the plate due to its flammable nature. The plates are not easily replaceable themselves as they’ve been spot welded into place. So the question, is there a type of glue which will hold up under high temperatures which is not flammable that will bond metal / plastic / ceramic. I’d estimate the heating element probably reaches no higher then 700 degrees. If you have any suggestions on how I would
