    I know there are "proper" glues out there for inserts but would PVC cement be a viable alternative for carbon arrows and aluminum inserts? I have Gorilla Crazy Glue but what about the cement? One question is would it bond with carbon and aluminum; the other is I think PVC cement heats up with the PVC pipe so would it compromise the integrity of the arrow?

    I'm not going to try it at this point but thought about throwing out the question for other thoughts and future reference.

    Best to use the right stuff, as inexpensive as it is. Will save you money in lost inserts/tips
