Nock adhesive for carbons?
« on: July 30, 2007, 08:22:00 PM »
I have a set of goldtip trads that I had made and the nocks keep pulling out. What would be the best glue/adhesive to keep them in?

Thanks,
Brian

Your serving is to thick or the nock is worn out.
 They are push in nocks and don't get glued in.
Share your knowledge and ideas.

The guys at the local archery shop here told me to use gorrila glue.Clean out the inside of the shaft with water and a Q-tip and put the glue on the insert.Water is the activation agent and I've yet to have an insert come out.The down side is I used to use hot melt and could get the insert out if I wanted....becareful not to heat the shaft if you use hot melt... good luck
Shoot straight and have FUN!!

Ya can use super glue, but ya should try new nocks first. Shawn
