Resetting bh adapters?

[Ethan Grotheer]

So here is my Quandary.
Hot melt or ferrel tite never adhered well enough for me when I seated my broadhead, so I started using JB weld as a permanent solution and five minute epoxy. They all spun perfectly when seated and dried, but as I prepared my arrows for this fall, many didn't spin true at all. My inserts are set true.
Do these adhesives settle or expand after a while?
I'm guessing my only solution will be to reheat, but I'm guessing I'll need a torch to do this?

Anyhow, can anyone recommend a better adhesive?

Thanks,
Ethan

IT will take a torch to get it hot enough. I use JB on my hunting heads, but I let them get almost dry befor i spin and tweek for best spinning. Good luck  TERM

Did you take them off the shafts after drying? Might try putting them on different shafts and numbering them when they spin ok. Hap

Ethan,the epoxy shouldn't change at all.Adaptors can get bent or things could move after you spin them and before the epoxy cures.I like to do as Term says and let the epoxy firm up,put them on a spinning jig to get them as true as possible and set them aside where nothing can touch the head till it cures.I then number the head and arrow.This way I can remove them to use blunts or whatever and get the broadhead back on the arrow it was aligned to.

You probably can get the heads off with a cigarette lighter.Remove the head from the arrow and be ready to pull the adapter out as soon as it gets hot enough.Watch the edge metal that it doesn't get hot enough to turn blue.Clean the parts well before reglueing.

Well, I did leave shem on the shafts while drying. staying set straight up. In a safe place of course  :D
 I didn't match them to shafts because I have set all my bows up with the same broadhead weight so that I have plenty of broadheads for any given set up or hunt. I've found every head that spins true will spin true in another shaft that has been inserted true.. My thoughts anyhow, but I may go to numbering arrows.

 Should I start taking the heads off the shaft once they start to harden?
 Perhaps I'll try the 24hr epoxy that 3rivers sells.
Thanks guys for all the info,
