fly Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 How many of you all use bow string wax on the threads of your sight screws to keep them from getting lose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 I've never used it on my sight but use it on the threads of my field points and broad heads to keep them from coming loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 on some I've used the blue Loctite. most of the time I don't though. I have used wax on the head of the bolts/screws to keep water out and prevent rust. same as at the ends of the axles. that's only in nasty weather though.

dbHunterNY Posted September 13, 2013 Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 ...now that I think about it I have put wax on field points to keep them from loosening up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinger-Hunter Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Never have. Never thought about it. I might try that. I have a habit of always touching and tightening the broadheads while in a tree stand, anyway. Keeps my mind occupied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly Posted September 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 I tried the wax and so far I've shot several days and the sights are in the same place. It's better than it was that's for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Shooter Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Never used bow string wax but blue Loc'tite int he stick form. It doesn't seize up like red lock tight but holds just as strong and easily breaks free if needed for adjustments. of course, string wax is cheaper.

fly Posted September 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 If the wax doesn't hold over timeI'll go with the blue Loc'tite - thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
