Default Insert Glue?

I'm getting ready to put together my first set of arrows from ground up, so what kind of glue do you use for your inserts? Is it the same as the glue you use for your fletching? Is there a brand of glue i need to stay away from or does it matter, I want something that sticks really good.

Thank you
Jeremy

It depends on if what material your arrows are made from (carbon, allum.,wood) For carbon, I like a 2 part epoxy or just some super glue.

For regualr inserts i use regular super glue! If im building arrows that have the HIT inserts, then i use the 2 part epoxy that comes with them!

I use the GoldTip glue (glorified super glue) for both plastic and brass inserts on my carbon arrows and the fletching on all my arrows.

For aluminum I use the Brownells (?) glue stick that you melt with a flame and then apply.

With both systems the glue joints tend to be to the point of needing to damage things to get them appart.

For HIT inserts, the glue that come with it. For all others, Goat Tough.
