Additional Features
Grade 5 Titanium
For the ultimate in lightweight toughness, our 15 grain HIT Inserts are precisely Swiss CNC machined using Grade 5 Titanium. This offers far superior strength-to-weight than ordinary HIT Inserts.
Hardened Stainless Steel
For heavier toughness, our 25-100 grain HIT Insert models are machined from Hardened Stainless Steel. This allows for more mass at the front-of-arrow while minimizing extra material.
Rounded Back
Broken arrows don't get the job done. So we rounded the back of our HIT Inserts to spread out pressure while the arrow shaft flexes mid-flight and on hard bone impact.
Precision Fitment
Engineered to industry-leading tolerances and available in 10 different weight and size combinations so you can find a precise fit for your arrow shaft. All this for shot consistency, so you can count on your arrows at the moment-of-truth.
Impact Collar Compatible
Designed to be used in conjunction with Iron Will Impact Collars for a stronger arrow connection and extra FOC options.

The best inserts and collars on the market.

These are phenomenal inserts for deep six and Snyder Core configurations. I only wish Iron Will made more weights in titanium other than 15 grains (10 for impact collars).
I love titanium strength to weight and believe it’s right at home as an option for HIT inserts and collars. I’d love a longer and stronger titanium insert over an equally weighted, shorter stainless insert.
I think if Iron Will starts making Ti ferrules and Ti inserts I’ll be looking to buy stock shares. That being said, I’m completely satisfied with these SS inserts and I’ll be looking to picking up more for future builds.
We use Titanium for the 15 grain HITs because it is necessary for meeting the strength to weight ratio. The hardened stainless steel is equally as strong at the other weights. We appreciate you and your business as well as your feedback.

I was trying to determine my next years arrow build (I start early to maybe get some holiday deals) and I was wondering what the strength difference between the 15 grain Ti insert vs the 25 grain SS insert is. To do this I calculated the max bending moment for each insert and compared them (see attached image). I found that the 25 grain SS insert is about 25% stronger than the 15 grain Ti insert but is 67% heavier. I hope this info helps anyone else on the fence between the 15 and 25 grain insert. I would also like to add the disclaimer that I did this during my lunch break so someone might want to verify the numbers. I also used the elastic deformation modulus which should be ideal for repeat shots but for a shot on an animal, the plastic deformation modulus might be better to use. There also might be other factors to consider like the fatigue resistance of Ti. @ironwilloutfitters I would be curious to see a table on these components comparing their strength as I assume the dynamic nature of the loading might also skew these results. Also, I don’t know how much the average arrow deflects on impact but based on your penetration force tests and a measure of arrow deflection you could calculate the max bending moment from the P-delta affect to see if there is a diminishing return on strength where the arrow doesn’t have enough energy to deform the insert (in a scapula not a rock).

Jumped into building a 4mm arrow setup for first time. Because broadhead choices are limited in deep 6 the 75 grain deep 6 HIT insert option made my arrow build possible. I hate half outs and the other options of sticking well over an inch of metal onto the front of an arrow.
Important to note that the iron will deep 6 HIT insert tool DOES NOT come with inserts. Must order separately . The brush on the insert tool stuck inside an Easton Axis 4mm the first time it was inserted and broke trying to get it out. Luckily I had a .17 cal push cleaning rod handy get it out.
Thank you for the review. The bristles on that brush come really stiff so they do a good job of scoring the bore, so for the first few times of use, you don't have to be very aggressive with the brush as it will do a good job with just some straight pushing in and out. It is designed to be tight so it doesn't require any twisting of the tool. As you use the tool more often, you will find that it becomes a easier to insert and can then be used more aggressively. That said, if you call up our customer service, we can evaluate the situation and see how we might be able to help.
