Can a Toriod transformer be Glued to a heat sink??? The Toroid
will be JB welded to the heat sink.

The toroid will be wound with a 30 degree gap between the start of
the winding to the end of the windings the toroid will ( winding
gap) be glued at that that point vertical position the windings
will be about 1/4 inch above the heat sink.

Comments???

Thanks!!!

I certainly would prefer to use RTV since that allows for different
temperature expansion between the toroid and the mounting surface. Toroids
are rather brittle and need some amount of flex in the way they are mounted.
