Default What is the best insert glue for carbon arrows?

I have always used two part epoxy for my inserts in carbon arrows but I was wondering if any one had luck with other glues?

Default Epoxy 100% all the time

I use the slow cure two part epoxy. Ive never lost an insert with this system. Have tried many other glues and lost at least one insert with all other products. Some were really really bad. Epoxy has been the best for me. Not the easiest to use and not the fastest but has been the best performer and I shoot a tonne of arrows a year with compounds, recurves and longbows.

Thanks for the suggestions. I have been using the 5 minute epoxy and have had a few pull out. I will be giving some of these other products a try. Thanks
