Title: Who has small diameter serving thread?
Post by: jwingman on April 02, 2008, 07:53:00 PM
Who has small diameter serving thread? I see Three Rivers goes down to .018 diameter. Does anyone carry any smaller? I shoot B50 strings and even with the smaller diameters of serving, my nocks are way to tight. I am looking for smaller diameter serving or larger nocks that might be available for Carbon Xpress shafts.
 Any input would be appreciated. - jwingman

You can get serving at .014 and .015 at Lancaster Archery supply.How many strands of B50 are you using with the .018 serving? Easton 3D Super nocks are my preferred nocks for CX,they have the largest and deepest throat of those types of nocks.Or I believe they have nock adapters for carbon arrows and then you can use Bohning classic glue on nocks,they have an even larger throat then most standard carbon nocks.

jwingman, awhile back somebody mentioned using spider wire fishing line. I know the 50lb line is very small. I tied string silencers on with it.

Thanks for the replies. I think I will pick up some serving from Lancaster.
 When I make my own strings, I don't have much problem, but I have received several bows lately that had B50 strings already on them that are awful tight on my nocks so I was looking to re-serve them with something smaller. This information will help. - jwingman
