Easton 5mm Stainless Steel HIT Inserts – Maximum Strength, Precision, and FOC Performance
Upgrade your arrows with the Easton 5mm Stainless Steel HIT Inserts, engineered for archers and bowhunters who demand unmatched strength, consistency, and FOC performance. Designed specifically for Easton 5mm (X Diameter) arrow shafts, these HIT™ inserts provide a durable, internal insert system that delivers superior alignment, improved accuracy, and rock-solid arrow integrity.
Unlike traditional aluminum or brass inserts, these solid stainless-steel HIT™ inserts offer extreme durability and increased mass up front — a major benefit for bowhunters chasing greater penetration, kinetic energy, and broadhead stability.
Every pack includes a high-quality insert installation tool, ensuring a perfect fit and worry-free installation. For the ultimate arrow build, pair these inserts with Easton’s 5mm Match Grade HIT Collars, creating a virtually indestructible front end ideal for elk, hogs, whitetails, and long-range target work.
At Extreme Outfitters, we trust these stainless-steel HIT inserts for bulletproof arrow setups built to withstand the toughest hunts.
Key Features
Durable Hidden Insert Technology (HIT™)
Easton’s HIT™ system positions the insert inside the arrow shaft rather than at the front, improving:
- Internal alignment
- Broadhead concentricity
- Long-range accuracy
- Structural strength through impact
This creates a seamless internal connection that bowhunters trust for deep-penetrating, bone-smashing performance.
Solid Stainless Steel Construction
Upgrade from aluminum or brass. Stainless steel provides:
- Superior impact resistance
- Long-term durability
- Consistent weight tolerances
- Greater mass up front for improved FOC
Perfect for bowhunters shooting heavy arrow systems or fixed-blade broadheads.
Adjustable FOC Options (50–75 Grains)
Each insert features Easton’s adjustable-weight design:
- Use 50 grains for a balanced all-purpose setup
