Where to find: nocksize-alu-shaft chart
« on: April 10, 2008, 06:36:00 AM »
Is there a chart on the web where I can find out what BJ nock will fit which shaft?
I've some difficulties to proper calculate the size for a BJ matching the Legacy shafts made by Easton: 1816, 1916, 2016, 2018, 2117.

Thank you!
Elmer Keith

The first number in the size is the diameter of the shaft in 64ths of an inch.  An 1816 would need a 9/32" nock (18/64"), a 2016 would take a 5/16 nock (20/64")  The inbetween sizes are up in the air.  1916 I use a 5/16 and same for 2117, but you could use a 11/32 on a 2117 but they are larger than the diameter of the shaft. Hope that helps. dino
