The 20 mm width makes it suitable for bow profiles that provide a wider bonding surface.

Shorter mounting length

The 17 mm length can suit areas where longitudinal mounting space is more limited.

Pair of two

Correct placement is essential.

Dry-fit first

Before applying adhesive, check:

• dimensions,
• contact area,
• orientation,
• string path,
• upper/lower alignment.

Compatibility

Type 2 is not universally compatible with every reflex or Asiatic bow.

The actual bow profile and geometry determine suitability.

Replacement use
