Tungsten alloy arrow points and archery components are increasingly popular among archers and hunters due to their superior performance characteristics. Tungsten heavy alloys provide a unique combination of density, durability, and precision, making them ideal for enhancing the effectiveness of arrows in various shooting applications.

What are Tungsten Alloy Arrow Points?

Tungsten alloy arrow points are specially designed tips made from tungsten heavy alloys, typically composed of tungsten combined with nickel and iron (WNiFe) or nickel and copper (WNiCu). These arrow points offer several advantages over traditional materials, such as steel or aluminum.

Key Benefits

  1. High Density: Tungsten is significantly denser than other materials used in arrow tips. This high density allows for smaller, more aerodynamic designs without sacrificing weight, leading to improved accuracy and penetration.
  2. Durability: Tungsten alloy arrow points are highly resistant to wear and deformation. This durability ensures that the points maintain their shape and effectiveness over time, even after repeated use.
  3. Precision Engineering: Tungsten alloy points can be manufactured with tight tolerances, ensuring a precise fit on the arrow shaft. This precision contributes to better flight stability and accuracy during shooting.
  4. Reduced Vibration: The dense nature of tungsten helps to dampen vibrations upon impact, resulting in a smoother shooting experience and improved accuracy.

Applications in Archery

Tungsten alloy arrow points are used in various archery applications, including:

  • Target Shooting: Their high density and precision make tungsten points ideal for target archery, allowing for consistent performance and accuracy.
  • Hunting: Tungsten alloy tips provide excellent penetration power, making them effective for hunting larger game. Their durability ensures they can withstand the rigors of outdoor use.
  • 3D Archery: In 3D archery competitions, where realistic animal targets are used, tungsten points help achieve the necessary accuracy and impact needed for successful shots.

Other Tungsten Alloy Archery Parts

In addition to arrow points, tungsten alloys are also used in other archery components:

  • Stabilizers: Tungsten can be used in stabilizers to enhance balance and reduce vibration during shooting.
  • Weighing Inserts: Tungsten inserts can be added to arrows to adjust weight for optimal performance based on individual shooting styles and preferences.
  • Bow Weights: Tungsten weights can be used in bow setups to improve stability and control during shots.

Tungsten Heavy Alloy Properties

ASTM B777 (MIL-T-21014 / SAE-AMS-T-21014) is a standard specification for Tungsten Heavy Alloys (WHA). The specification is organized into four classes (1-4). Each categorization or classification represents a percentage amount of Tungsten (W) Alloy.

Class 1: W 90% 

Class 2: W 92.5% 

Class 3: W 95%

Class 4: W 97.5%
