Glueing Broadheads onto screw in adaptors

[buckeyebowhunter]

Gettin ready to glue some green razorheads onto adaptors for my carbon arrows. I normally use ferul-tite for glueing my broadheads onto the adaptors, but have had some pull out in targets before. Anyone use anything else with good results? I have been considering a two-part expoxy..

I've been having the same problem lately, so I'm interested in what others have to say as well.   :confused:

Me three.... I thought I must be doing something wrong.  My problem is that the broadheads won't come off the adapter they just spin in place!

I like the 5 minute JB weld........

Gorilla glue.

I use "Bohning Iron Insert".

I switched to the glue Big Jim sells and have had NO problems since.

Good Luck

A lot of folks swear by regular craft type hot glue out of a glue gun.  It is less brittle for sure.

Ive never had a problem with FerulTite but I will still try something different when the stick I have is spent.

Same problem with my razorheads and ferrel tite .  I've tried crafting glue didn't work.  So today I said the heck with it, found the smallest drill bit I had drilled thru the head and the adapter, found a nail that fit snug, clipped it and pounded it flat on both sides.  Took me only a couple of minutes and they don't come off anymore.  I only do it to my practice heads though.

Kimsha Quick-Stick works really well.  I have been using it for 10 yrs. or more. It is less brittle than Ferr-L-Tite, much stickier if you will.  I wouldn't go the epoxy route as it does not allow for flexibility i.e. removal of the broadhead, JMO.  I see in 3 Rivers, there is a new Ferr-L-Tite Cool Flex specifically for carbon arrows, it has a lower melting point, probably like the Kimsha, making it gooier/stickier.

All suggestions above will work fine, but for a hot glue, I think the Kimsha is a better choice.

Good luck!

JB weld

Hot melt craft glue.

Never a release on my BHs. Even the ones I wiggled out of trees.

I really like Easton's hot melt. It holds well and if you need it to be it is heat reversible.

[joe skipp]

Never had any problems with Ferrule Tite when hot melting heads to adapters. I clean the adapters with 91% Iso to remove any film or oil. Apply enough hot melt, heat well and push the head on.

Now, the smaller or shorter BHA that Bear Razorheads need, I would use JB Weld or some form of epoxy. Too much Hot Melt and it could "push forward" when heated and head applied. This will make it difficult to install bleeder blades.

same here never had a point come off or an adpt fail. works great for me  

[NBK]

JB weld here too.

Gorilla glue lately.

Always use two part epoxy, have to heat a little more to remove but easily done, just removed a bunch of bear heads the other day.

[cahaba]

I also use two part epoxy and never had a issue with it.

[buckeyebowhunter]

Can heads glued with two part epoxy be removed with heat?
