I'm trying to bond two Polypropylene components together. I know PP is tough to adhere anything to and I haven't had much luck with some of the Locktite grades that I've tried. Does anyone have any suggestions for how I can adhere these two PP components together?

3M have special adhesives for plastics with low surface energy.
They mostly come in 3 sided tape form and are quite effective if used correctly.

Why not hot-air weld, or ultrasonic weld? I've even seen laser welding done for like plastics.
Aside from the above post here is another source of adhesives for your material.
