making footers for Axis

[Bronc]

Anyone know what aluminum shaft would work with a .272 od carbon arrow?

If my calculations are right
2018=.277 I.D.
1916=.265 I.D.

Too small and too big, where would a 2016 fall?

A few weeks backs I found a chart that shows the ID of each Easton aluminum, I’d post it up but of course I can’t find it right now lol.

Maybe your google skills are better than mine

2016=.280
I don’t have any of the arrows to actually measure the inside diameter. I’m guessing the dimensions vary slightly from my calculations.

Thanks guys, maybe that 2018 can work, I may have a few from my old recurve arrows?

Can not locate that chart either.

They make a 1914 in x7 shafts and a 1913 in platinum plus xx75

Can’t see the pic but I’m in! Switching back to axis from micro shafts this year and plan on shooting your solid 125s, a footer would make it even better

I've been testing some hardened steel footers and they definitely add strength to the end of the arrow.

It's hard to beat the simplicity of just ordering some from VPA.

The VPAs are the cats ass. Waiting to see what Bill does in stainless.
I will never go back to non flanged footer.


That BEA will do great in tests on stationary solid materials. All the force is foward. The problem with that is anaimals move and force on the arrow is lateral as well. The issue with a system like that or any outsert is that lateral force is it's down fall.
