Default RE: Hot Melt or Powerbond

The hotmelt is a superior glue.The Hotmelt is more cosistant and spreads evenly around the insert and you can remove the points later with very little heat to a field point.Even the Easton glue is better than the Bohning glue.



Just put a little around the end of the shaft and then heat the inserts and slide them in with a pair of pliers on a field tip while spinning the arrow to make sure the glue is spread evenly.


You can even tune broadheads in a broadhead tuner with hotmelt with a little heat but not with other glues.


Just make sure you clean the inside of the shaft with acetone or denatured alcohol and let dry before installing points.



Ps,what size ACC's and what kind of points did you get? Reason I ask is That Lancaster is selling PDP,inserts for the 3-28's and 3-39's that are much better than halfouts and would definately be worth the time to get them.I just installed some for a friend and was really impressed with the quality and they tapered to match a 9/32 field point.
