Description
SPHERE Zenith 4.2 - Break-Off - 70-90gr - Glue tips - 12 pieces
The bullet tip takes its shape and name from classic firearm cartridges. The shape is significantly rounder and thicker overall. It is easier on the target and can be pulled out of it more easily.
Hard, harder, hardest: carbon steel
Carbon steel consists of approximately 98-99% iron and the carbon that gives it its name. The carbon is added during production because it gives the material a hardness that iron alone would not achieve during processing. This type of steel is so hard that most sharp blades are made from it today: i.e. razor blades, scalpels, cutter knives and high-quality kitchen knives.
Despite all its excellent characteristics, carbon steel has one disadvantage: it can rust. With a little care, however, this effect can be minimised or corrected, and in archery it is more of an optical problem than an actual one.
The all-rounder: stainless steel
Unlike carbon steel, stainless steel (also called chrome steel) is an alloy that consists of significantly more materials, i.e. in addition to iron and carbon, it also contains chromium and other metals. The chromium makes the stainless steel rust-resistant. The proportion of carbon is of course significantly lower than in pure carbon steel and makes the tips ‘softer’ and less dimensionally stable.
