i am considering using goat tuff glue on my inserts and nocks instead of hot melt. how much time do i have to install the inserts before the glue sets. or would i be better off with hot melt?

Bottle says 10 seconds; I let it set about 10-15 minutes on vanes.

5seconds is enough to glue your fingers together

had a close call on that

but in 10-15seconds its a good enough bond to hold, but I would let set for atleast 15-20mins before shooting a arrow. I perferr leaving arrows over night to set no matter what glue is used though

goat tuff is great stuff, just dont plan on removing your inserts once used though

About 5 to 8 seconds is all the time you have to get your inserts in.
