What is the best glue for securing weight tubes in shafts.  Introduced a friend to Stump Shootin today and he loved it, but lost a few knocks due to the weight tubes.
Thanks,

I don't think you glue weight tubes. Why are you using weight tubes? Wouldn't it make more sense to buy a heavier spine weight and shoot more point weight instead? If you are set on using the weight tubes you could just super glue the nock on instead of gluing the whole tube.

I have heard of people using teflon(plumber's) tape around the nock, scotch tape, or a small dab of glue on the nock itself.
I would think a small dab of hot melt, or even fletching glue might work if applied to the insert end of the tube and quickly inserted...

Pinch the center of the tube with pliers,just enough to expand the dia alittle.

What badger said, but i put a pinch about every 4" as i incert the weight tube. Also stops any noise like rattling.
