Removing a broadhead from the ferrule...
« on: August 17, 2008, 10:35:00 AM »
Greetings All,

My friend has a few broadheads that wobble on the ferrule and I was wondering how we can remove them and correct the problem.  I'm afraid of using to much heat and damaging the heads...

Any help would be appreciated!

Happy hunting,
Jason

Boil them, if it is hot melt glue, I think someone said in here that this would work on some epoxies as well.

Not my idea - I saw this on another thread and used it last night, worked good.

what roadkill said.. just keep heating a little and twisting, until the bond breaks free.
