Most household type of "Super Glues" are worse than an epoxy type for the simple reason that moisture will breakdown the bond.

There are industrial types that use a primer/surface conditioner that help a lot. These activators help the bond become stronger.

A proper surface preparation is required for any adhesive to work properly.

I had missed this 
If you rough up the surface properly (use a file to cut a number of grooves), clean the surface well and prepare the epoxy correctly, allowing enough curing time, there is no reason why good epoxy should not hold.

I could try to make grooves on the 4 aluminium surfaces wich are in contact and fill those grooves with epoxy.
Good idea, that would give it much better mechanical strength. Also go to a hardware store and get some new epoxy...make sure the packaging specifically says it works on epoxy, don't worry you'll find some.
Plumbers have a funny definition of half an inch...

I have a question about epoxy, I just didn't want to start a new thread with the exact same title.
Do epoxy pistons dry hard or somewhat squishy?

By the time you said all those negative comments, you could have answered my dang question a hundred times.

why not solder it?
"physics, gravity, and law enforcement are the only things that prevent me from operating at my full potential" - not sure, but i like the quote
you know you are not an engineer if you have to remind yourself "left loosy righty tighty"

I dont have anything to solder ( well my grandpa as a complete oxy-acetylen torch kit with regulators but i dont know how to use it )
I will make two hole beneath the part that failed, put a cylindrical piece of metal and adjust the height with metal shims. ( its simple and adjustable )
