Ravin Serving Fluid Crossbow String Lubricant – Polymeric Formula

Ravin Serving Fluid Crossbow String Lubricant – Polymeric Formula

Advanced Protection for High-Velocity Strings

Unlike traditional waxes that can become tacky or attract grit, Ravin Serving Fluid creates a slick, durable barrier on the center serving. This formula reduces wear caused by the trigger mechanism and the rail, extending the life of your string significantly. The easy-to-use applicator allows for mess-free maintenance, ensuring the lubricant gets exactly where it is needed. It is essential to apply this lubricant before using your crossbow in weather conditions below 0 °C (32 °F). Cold weather can make string fibers brittle; this polymeric fluid keeps the serving flexible and resilient even in the harshest winter environments.

Technical Specifications

Purpose and Application

The primary purpose of Ravin Serving Fluid is to minimise friction and prevent the center serving from fraying. A well-lubricated serving ensures a smoother release and more consistent bolt velocities, which translates directly to improved accuracy in the field.

Expert Insight

Did you know that modern high-speed crossbows generate significant heat at the center serving during launch? Standard wax can melt and spin off the string at high speeds. This polymeric fluid is designed to withstand the thermal and kinetic stresses of 500+ FPS crossbows, staying embedded within the serving to provide continuous protection.

How to Care for Your Crossbow String

• Apply the fluid at least once a year to keep the polymeric bonds fresh and effective.
• Always apply before sub-zero hunting trips to ensure the serving remains flexible in freezing temperatures.
• Before application, wipe the serving with a clean, lint-free cloth to remove any accumulated dust or old residue.

What to Avoid

Only apply Serving Fluid to the center serving; do not use it on the main body of the string or the cables, which require standard string wax. Avoid over-application—a small amount goes a long way. Excessive fluid can run into the trigger box, potentially attracting debris that could interfere with the firing mechanism.

Recommended Accessories

To keep your entire string system in top shape, pair this fluid with Ravin String Wax for the non-served sections of the string and cables. A high-quality cleaning cloth or a small brush is useful for prepping the serving before lubrication. For the ultimate maintenance routine, consider a Ravin Crossbow Care Kit, which includes all the essential lubricants for your high-performance bow.
