ive used this with great results gluing inserts in carbons. Has anyone used it to glue alum or steel broadhead adapters to broadheads and how'd it hold up?

I use it for brass/ aluminum inserts to carbon arrows and steel inserts into broadheads, cant recall ever having a problem. Seems like good stuff to me.

Best glue I have ever used for inserts, but I have not used it for adaptors to broadheads, so I can't comment on that application.

The feedback that I have received is that it is great for all three types of arrow materials (carbon, aluminum, and wood) and steel to steel also.
thanks, bigjim

I have used it with both the aluminum and steel adapters into points without any issues. I also use it for both aluminum and brass inserts.
Best point glue on earth in my opinion.

Thanks. I will be switching from the old yellow stick to big jims for all my applications. I have had the yellow hot melt loosen and I clean things pretty good before gluing... I know for sure how well big jims glue works on inserts--- I beat the snot out of my stumping arrows and it holds...

Big Jim's is the best glue of all time , just keep it away from the dog. Lets just say I had to buy more after my dog got done taste testing mine , and no his butthole didn't get glued shut as I wished.

But how does it hold up in cold weather?
Past exoerience with OTHER hot melt glues in near/below freezing is that the glue can shatter and cause total release of inserts, points and glue-on heads.

It does not get brittle like some other Hot melt styles. Before using this glue I had lost tips every winter. I have been going 3 years without a tip loss due to glue Failure.
