Description
BCY Halo™ Serving Material
The Halo Serving Material from BCY is one of the most durable bowstring serving materials available today. Manufactured from 100% tightly braided Spectra® fibre (or similar UHMPE), it delivers exceptional wear resistance and long-lasting performance for both centre and end serving applications.
Whether you are building custom bowstrings or maintaining existing equipment, this serving thread provides reliable performance and excellent consistency. As a result, it remains a popular choice among professional string builders and competitive archers.
Halo Serving for Centre and End Applications
A quality serving material helps protect critical areas of the bowstring from wear and abrasion. This braided serving thread performs exceptionally well as both centre serving and end serving.
Furthermore, its tight braid construction creates a smooth finish while maintaining excellent durability under repeated shooting cycles.
Maximum Durability and Wear Resistance
The Spectra® fibre construction offers outstanding abrasion resistance. Consequently, the serving maintains its integrity even under demanding shooting conditions.
In addition, the material resists separation and excessive wear, making it suitable for compound bows, recurve bows, and high-performance custom string builds.
Multiple Diameter Options
Different bowstring applications require different serving diameters. Therefore, Halo is available in a wide range of sizes to suit various string and cable configurations.
When using smaller diameters such as Halo .007, BCY recommends applying lower serving tension to prevent the material from snagging during installation.
