Title: What diameter aluminum inserts (short) for Bear Razorheads??
Post by: Ray Lyon on March 27, 2021, 11:15:58 AM
I have one of what appears to be a 5/16 aluminum broadhead insert that fits my Bear Razorheads perfectly. These are post 1964 and before the dark green smaller ferrule Razorheads.  The insert seems to fit slightly down inside an 11/32 steel glue on field point.  I measured the width of insert with a ruler and it also appears to be 5/16.  I'm going to make up about 25 heads and before I pay $6 per half dozen inserts from 3Rivers I want to make sure my suspicion is correct

I have some 11/32 black steel short adapter and the Razorheads don't completely seat on the insert, so I suspect the Razorheads are more like 21/64 than 11/32

I was given some 5/16 carbons and for kicks, I mounted some Bear Greenies. They matched up nicely on the 5/16 adapters.

Here's the comparison.  I like the setup on the top which is 5/16

Hi Chuck, my buddy might have some too. I'm going to see him tomorrow and see what he has. I believe he had some long 5/16 that I can cut off with a hacksaw. I'll check back

Ray,

I have 14 of the short aluminum ones if you need them.
I pulled them out of my Razorheads when I switched to wood years ago.
