Screw-on arrowheads

Arrows are an essential material to practice archery. In fact, without ammunition, you cannot hit your target, whether it is a stationary target or a game. An arrow is generally made up of various inseparable accessories. In addition to the shaft, the notch, and the feathers, the head remains a crucial element, and you should not neglect its choice. It is the piercing part of the arrow and is located opposite the notch. It penetrates the target first and is often subjected to great strain.

An arrowhead is usually conical in shape and is mostly made of iron. The material used may be tungsten or zinc depending on the intended use. This accessory plays an important role in the balance of the arrow. It also helps to stabilize the arrow during the flight to a given target. Besides, its weight can also affect the flexibility of the arrow shaft and the output performance of the bow arrow. The screw-on arrowhead is one of the two main types of arrowheads for archery. It has a female thread and is screwed to an insert that will be glued to the arrow shaft.

What is the difference between a screw-on arrowhead and a stick-on arrowhead?

There are two main types of archery arrowheads. You have the screw-on arrowhead and the stick-on arrowhead. Each of these two types usually does not require sharpening work. However, the head may be damaged due to improper use. The difference between a screw-on arrowhead and a stick-on arrowhead lies in the way the head is inserted into the tube. The screw-on arrowhead is screwed directly into an insert, while the stick-on arrowhead is glued directly into the shaft using glue or resin.

The screw-on arrowhead has some important advantages for archers. Thanks to the existence of the thread, the tip is perfectly adjusted to the arrow shaft, which allows a better centering. The head is also parallel to the shaft, this allows to reinforce the solidity of the arrow. Also, the assembly can be carried out without extensive gluing work and the head can be replaced by a new arrowhead quickly when damaged. This feature allows the weight of the tip to be changed to optimize the stability of the arrow.

How to choose and mount a screw-on arrowhead on the arrow?

You can choose a screw-on arrowhead by taking into account different criteria. In particular, you must consider the intended use, the desired shape, and the right size for your arrows. This choice is all the more important since the head has an impact on the flight of the arrow. The lighter your head is, the more rigid it stiffens your arrow shaft when shooting.

The assembly of a screw-on arrowhead requires special attention. You must follow specific steps for its proper insertion into the shaft. You must put glue on the insert and heat the head. Then you should remove the excess glue on the insert before screwing in the cooled arrowhead.
