Easton Full Metal Jacket

The combination of a high-strength carbon core and a 7075-alloy metal jacket creates a heavier, small-diameter shaft. This design excels at deep penetration, making it ideal for hunters targeting thick hide or bone.

No, these shafts are sold as bare shafts. You will need to fletch them yourself to match your specific vane preferences and helical requirements.

The smaller diameter reduces the surface area exposed to wind, which significantly minimizes wind drift during flight. It also contributes to the arrow's ability to penetrate deeply by reducing friction upon impact.

Because these use a 5mm X Nock system and include HIT 8-32 inserts, they are compatible with standard 8-32 threaded broadheads. However, you may want to consider broadheads with a diameter that matches the shaft for a cleaner profile.

While the metal jacket adds weight and durability, the smooth surface finish is designed to slide out of target material more easily than some standard carbon arrows. Still, expect them to be slightly more resistant than pure carbon shafts due to the added mass.

These shafts are manufactured with a straightness tolerance of ±.002 inches. This level of precision ensures consistent flight characteristics, which is essential for accuracy at longer distances.
