Fletching glue?
« on: July 22, 2013, 08:34:00 PM »
Anyone use either BEYOND BOND or NPV glue for fletching on aluminum arrows?
I am wanting to know if there are any problems with these glues before fletching up a dozen arrows.
I've been using fletchtite platinum but thought I would try something different.

Thanks

John, Platinum is all I use and I never have feathers falling off of either aluminum or carbon.  Scrub with a paper towel soaked in acetone before fletching and you will be good to go.

NPV seems to work well on just about anything.  No experience with Beyond Bond myself.

I sure liked the old original white bottle Fletch Tite on aluminums.

My local archery shop managed to come up with quite a few of the old white tube Fletch-Tite...fortunately a lot of new shooters have no idea what it is so it is not selling well...what a shame    :thumbsup:

I like Goat Tuff. I only wait a few minutes between fletches and it works great.
