Epoxy adhesives are pretty good, but it's all about joint design, surface preparation and choice of adhesive.

If you have to ask, then you may not be qualified.

Just hopefully this engineer is not making a bridge glued with epoxy.

Well the bridge too may be a small one (like the languages), the consonant conjoiners (vowels) deleted so no problem except some children may cry.

Never thought- just struck- the vowels are like fasteners- keeping the main body - consonants- together.

Google, 'epoxy adhesive' 'structural adhesive' 'adhesive joint design' etc there are loads of epoxy adhesives, manufacturers websites should give info.
It also depends on the application. If all else fails ...experiment.

I'm in UK, you are in India presumably?...and you are asking me where it's available in India...how on earth would I know?

If you can not be arsed to at least try to write in English why should I bother to answer. Keep this sort of writing, if you must, to when messaging with your equally lazy young mates.

It also depends on how durable and what kind of load one anticipates on the joint. To adhere a sheet of paper to a metal surface, simple adhesive tape will do. To attach a metal label to a metal chassis many metal labels come with a solvent triggered contact adhesive already on the label. There's also the myriad of cyanoacrylate products (Crazy Glue, Eastman 910) that work quite well depending on the load.

Epoxy adhesives, cyanoacrylate adhesives and impact adhesives can all be used in the right circumstances.

Most mechanical engineers will favour a more predictable fastening such as bolts, rivets or welding.
