Preparing carbon arrows for inserts requires specialized equipment, and the Carbon-Prep Tool is the ultimate. Long-lasting teeth etch the inside of the arrow for maximum insert adhesion, unlike other tools that are simply modified bore brushes.

Too large for thin diameter arrow shafts,July 15, 2008
By RossNorthernVAfrom Northern Virginia
"The Carbon Arrow Prep Tool appears to be well made; however, I haven't yet been able to use it as it is too large for my arrow shafts including the arrows that my wife shoots (Thuderstorm). Due to the size of the tool and that it does not work with thin diameter arrows I do not recommend its purchase."

Does not work for smaller diameter carbons,June 30, 2008
By DanDeverfrom Fairbanks, Alaska
"We will never know. I purchased the prep tool because I was buying new carbons and a roughened surface will hold better than a smooth one for adhesives. To my dismay, no where in the write up does it state minimum carbon diameter size. This is one of those items we all need more data on to ensure it fits our needs."

Carbon shaft prep tool,November 20, 2006
By GooseCreekfrom Indiana traditional bowhunter
"The number one failure I hear of carbon arrows in the field, is the glued in aluminum insert comes loose after hitting something solid, and when the arrow is pulled out of the stump or dense target of some sort, the insert and tip are pulled out.
The best way to prevent this is to use the carbon shaft prep tool to rough up the inside of the shaft to a depth of at least 1.5". The carbon prep tool does an excellent job of producing small scale cuts that in turn dramatically increase the surface area for the glue. Since going to the prep tool, I've not lost a single head."
