Carbon nock adapters
« on: March 19, 2013, 11:06:00 PM »
I got some of the aluminum nock adapters from 3R that you glue into the nock end of your carbon arrows, and then use the glue on nocks like you would for your wood arrows.  I thought I'd give them a try but I need to know what glue to use on the inside of the shaft or does it matter?  Thanks.

I used the same epoxy I use for my inserts,I like AAE 24 hr.epoxy.I clean and etch the inside of any carbon before I epoxy them in.

I really like the aluminum no k inserts for carbon shafts. The make iy possible for me to use Bohning Classic nocks. I use insert iron glue to glue the inserts into the shafts. Works great.
