Title: glue
Post by: Scattergun2570 on June 22, 2012, 08:03:00 PM
Have these Easton Blues arrows. I assume the nocks have to be glued on. The only glue I have is a 10" glue stick I bought to use for inserts. Is this what is used,or do I need something else?

If those are aluminum arrows I would use Fletch-tite Platinum.

Scattergun... if you don't have access to regular fletching cements a small tube of super glue gel from the dollar store will do just fine.

don't use epoxy. You were told wrong. Hot melt isn't the glue for the job either.

I've always used Fletch-Tite on my aluminum arrows.

the Fletchtite will work just fine. Clean the taper  and inside of the nock with a little alcohol first.

I just got to be different, because of the easy availability of Duco thats what I use for nocks and fletching.
