Reduce the serving diameter or get a larger throated nock. Heating the plastic can weaken it and it will fail prematurely

If the nocks are still pulling out or are otherwise loose, here is a trick for tightening press in style nocks if you don`t want to use glue: Take a piece of sandwich wrap and put it over the end of the arrow, insert the nock and trim off the excess plastic. The tiny extra bit of material is usually enough to tighten the nock and you are still able to turn the nock to tune.
