Super glue can work but it isn't designed to have torsion strength (I.E. being able to be turned or bent slightly...) so it will sheer. Hot glue has the torsion strength, but it doesn't have structural strength (I.E. it is far too flexible) so it will bend before it breaks. My answer would be to either use a plastics glue, or an epoxy resin such as JB Weld.
