The adapter in stainless is 200g full length. It can be cut to 150g. There is cut marks.
The aluminum version (solid aluminum) is 100g full and can be cut to 50g.
Each system is provided with a tapered sleeve. SS is 40g and aluminum in 20g.

Go to my You Tube page and see my real quick video on the system.

Yes, this adapter was created to be comparable with all glue in broadheads. However, when using the TUFFHEAD or MEATHEAD it is triple reinforced by our larger 23/64” ferrule.

Thank you for the info. I found the sleeves on the website, although I cannot find the video on youtube?

Thank you for the advice, the website is pretty informative.

If you look on the bottom of my web page, it has my instagram feed. The video is posted there as well.

I started using smooth-on adhesive for the standard 80 Gr inserts (w/ a touch of outsert) on victory Trad arrows. Loving it. I saw the recommendation on TG and tried it. No mushrooming and solid end of arrow. Outserts seem like a PIA to deal with. Just my opinion.

Tuffhead, I see you adapter system has a taper exclusive to Tuffheads. I understand that. What is that "standard" taper for glue on broached adapters and are those something that would be available in the future? For fitting field points and non-tuffhead broad heads.Your broad heads look great I just prefer a little more width for wet weather whitetail rib cages. Most of  the time I am a fan of the 1" single bevel.
Or just make a wider cut broadhead! (Zwickey Delta width). I have so much hardware that uses the standard taper laying around.
Thank you,
Tedd

Thank you, I did not know about them. They are basically collars and insert all in one, seems interesting.

Tedd,
I offer “2” types of direct bond adapters.
1) Exclusively made for my head. The Direct bond Tuffhead Adpater.
2) The Disrect Bond System with sleeve. These are comparable with most glue on broadheads. If used with my heads, you gain a 3rd point of re-inforcement.
These also work great with my glue on field points.
I will see if I can post a video I did real quick to explain the different adapters.
You can also see the video if you go onto my instagram account in my igtv video

Got it! Thank you. I'll be getting some of those for my Black Eagle shafts.
(I'm think about trying the smallest diameter adapter in the front of a wood shaft. It might stiffen the spine while adding weight.)
