I always use wraps on my carbon arrows and use Platinum fletch tite for gluing.Holds great and haven't had any problem.Never like gluing to a carbon shaft.Using wraps makes them so much easier to redo later if needed.Carbons are tough arrows and chances are if you don't loose them you will be redoing them later.

I agree-- try Onestringer wraps and like possum head said replace with a fresh tube once every 12 months.  Dot of glue front and back of each feather completes the job.

I just started fletching my own, but the tape seems to work well for me! Dab of superglue on both ends and I have yet to have an issue.

I've used Fletch-tite for years without issues but, recently tried Saunders NPV. I like it. It seems to flow out of the tube easier and more even.

Saunders NPV.  Does not become brittle and fletching is easily scraped off without the chipping like super glues.
