1997xltlimited Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 Is there anything you can use besides the orings to keep the blades shut. I just ran out of them and need something. String, floss???? Anybody tried anything else with some luck??? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revhard Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Shockwave broadheads get a piece of scotch tape and cut the diameter in half, then tape it around but dont over lap it. i use to do this to my pucketts a long time ago and it worked good.

gowest Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Shockwave broadheads Stop by a dentist's office and pick up some rubber bands used on braces - some will give them to you for free - others at a nominal cost.

shockwave Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Shockwave broadheads do you know any kids that have braces ?? the rubberbands they use worked pretty well for me.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutchies Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Shockwave broadheads Now that nobody has thought of it let me tell you the easiest way. Take the broadhead to a hardware store with you and go back to the o-ring sections. Find the one that fits the best and buy a handfull of them. I bought 30 of them for my Shockwaves for about $4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1997xltlimited Posted September 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Shockwave broadheads are the o-rings supposed to break each time or just slide back so you can use them again???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutchies Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Shockwave broadheads Slide back but alot of times they break. Simply keep an extra o ring on the shaft. Just keep it right behind the insert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1997xltlimited Posted September 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Shockwave broadheads if a oring that is to thick will that cause it not to open. you would want a pretty thin o-ring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutchies Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Shockwave broadheads Actually when the shockwave opens it will roll the oring back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1997xltlimited Posted September 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Shockwave broadheads the o-ring goes right at the bottom of the blades where the grove is correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1997xltlimited Posted September 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Shockwave broadheads or does it go over the middle of the blades when it is closed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutchies Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Shockwave broadheads To the groove only. Do not put it all the way up on the blades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
