Edit: I decided to throw it out and order a new stainless steel one that’s all one piece. Thanks for the help!
Stainless steel screw through the part where plastic and metal pipe meet. Or epoxy.
Plastic items aren’t meant to be repaired and it’s not a good idea to use them with food for very long. The plastic parts will disintegrate. Just throw it out.
Buy one that’s made out of wood.
Metal, wood handle, more durable.
the only allowable plastic for utensils should be a rubber spatula (high heat), for scooping out the last bits of a product.
metal is ok but not so good for the pan. absolutely not suitable for coated pans
Try a mix of superglue with corn starch.
Round up another $1.25 and head to dollar tree
This right here unfortunately, the glue will cost more if you only use the glue once. We live in a world where items are easier/cheaper to throw out then repair.
Though I guess the cheapest thing you could do is drill a hole on the backside with a drill and put a screw through it. Only a short screw that goes into the cylinder/shaft.
Also fyi, most plastics from the dollar store are not guaranteed to be toxic free. You may find most of these plastics melt on pans with use over time and might end up being consumed. Usually what I opt for is metal on a metal pan or silicon cooking utensils that don’t seem to melt or loose peices of them in what I am cooking.
Just go to Spatula City
![[Answered] What would be a good glue to repair this spatula with that wont be toxic or come undone in a dishwasher?(lemmy.world)](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/ab3cf6e1-13ef-4b5a-bbdf-7694694c2981.jpeg){kind=link}
