Hi Rob,
Closest thing that I can find is steel adapters from Three Rivers:

I keep several Brass inserts for different type arrows. I have even special made some for Crossbow bolts.
Many Crossbow shooters are missing the boat by not taking advantage of a high FOC on a Bolt. It will increase penetration, and shrink groups.

Being that an arrow is out in all kinds of weather I would not want to use carbon steel as a material for an insert. If they were made of stainless it would be fine but not carbon steel.
Brass would be my choice. Brass is heavier so the weight is more concentrated at the tip. A steel insert would have to be longer to get the same weight and FOC.
