Can anyone recommend a good heat resistant glue or other method of tightening loose mold handles?

what brand of handle? I've been drilling and pinning some of the loose handles that I have. (through the metal ring at the ends of the handle closest to the mould) I've tried glue, but between the heat from the alloy, and the vibration from whacking the pin, with a wooden rod, it never seems to work too long.

Old ones never came loose, newer ones always seem to. Remove the little nails they use to hold them in place and replace with a small screw.
