Insert Glue

[2005bowrookie]

What is a good glue to use for the inserts? Guy at Gander Mountain suggested "Gorilla Glue". I ended up getting some "Steel Force - Beyond Bond" glue. Seems to be holding up good.....so far.

I wouldn't use any type of polyurethane glue (i.e. Gorilla Glue, Powerbond By Elmer's etc.) The reason being that these glues will expand when the set up. Personally I recommend a 2-part epoxy, they are available at any hardware store for a inexpensive price.

if u are shooting carbons u might trie some of that hot melt glue that is in the cabela's catalog,,that is what my uncle used on his a/c/c that he gave to me to use last year,,and possibly next year

Hot melt glues are okay, they are fast, but often times do not dry hard. Though this is just my experience.

Hot melt glue works well for aluminum, but not so much for carbon. 2 part epoxy is the best for carbon. Just make sure to put on a thin, even layer so as not to put too much weight on one side.

hot melt work on alum..cool maybe il stick with my fence post buy bare shafts and cut them down with a copper tubing cutter and use the 5 or 6 stick of hot melt for the inserts,,that is a good idea,,now i would just have to find a place where i can get these arrow that i am shooting know cause they aint in cabela's or at the easton wedsite

I've just used super glue. It works fine so far.

I am pretty sure, though notpositive, that Easton no longer makes the Quatro.
