Frequently Asked Questions

• What type of bow is BCY B55 Dacron String most suitable for? — It is ideal for traditional bows such as recurves and longbows, as well as crossbows. It is particularly suitable for older or wooden bows that were not designed for ultra-low-stretch string materials and require a more forgiving material for the limbs.
• What is the main difference between Dacron B55 and modern bowstring materials? — Dacron B55 is a polyester material with low stretch, but with more stretch than modern synthetic materials such as Dyneema or Fast Flight. This characteristic makes it gentler on the limbs of traditional bows, helping to extend their service life, although arrow speed may be slightly lower than with ultra-low-stretch materials.
• Do I need any special tools to make bowstrings with this material? — To make a bowstring from scratch with this material, you will need a string jig, serving tools and possibly a serving machine, as well as bowstring wax.
