Bitzenburger Fletching Jig Description
The Bitzenburger Fletching Jig also known as the Bitzenburger Dial-O-Fletch Fletching Jig, originally designed in 1940 and built by Henry A Bitzenburger, has long been considered the best jig money can buy and is the choice of archers the world over.
Bitzenburger Jigs have set the industry standard for fletching tools for more than 80 years.
It is today's only true precision fletching jig used by every major quality arrow manufacturer around the world.
The basic principle of the famous Bitzenburger Jig is the powerful permanent magnet which allows for continuous uniform placement of all vanes and feathers. All of the many functional features work in unison with this magnet.
Unparalleled quality, simplicity and precision set this fletching tool in a class by itself.
The large dial keeps the spacing between vanes or feathers perfect every time.
The Bitzenburger works with vanes or feathers on carbon, aluminium or wood shafts.
Precision die cast body with clamp is built to last a lifetime.
It uses a graduated scale for accurate fletching spacing.
The magnet is the most expensive and important part of this tool and great care should be taken to protect it. A metal keeper or the clamp should be kept across the face of the magnet at all times.
Allen screws on the top and bottom of the clamp magnet allow adjustments to the angle of fletching.
Best of all, the jig is all die cast alloy, which means it's easy to clean any glue residue.
They don't come any better than the Bitzenburger Jig.

This is what people have said about the Bitzenburger Fletching Jig.
5 out of 5 stars. "Excellent product! I have been using an Easton fletching jig (the orange one that fletches all three vanes at the same time) for a while, as these more advanced jigs just looked more complicated. I wish I had started using this way sooner! It is very easy to use, and has a lot of adjustment ability (where the vane sits on the arrow, how much offset, etc). Yes, it does take 3 times as long to fletch an arrow since you are only gluing one vane at a time, but the jig does a way better job of fletching. With the simple jig I often had one vane that was skewed, or didn't sit flush on the arrow, as well as often having glue all over the shaft from the wet glue making contact and then moving as the jig settled in. With this, every arrow has come out perfect. I do wish that it came with both the straight and helical clamp, but I can just buy the helical clamp later. Highly recommended." From Nick from USA
5 out of 5 stars. "Great product. I got an old Bitzenburger from an archery shop going out of business. It had lots of miles on it, fletched who knows how many arrows. Had to clean it up a bit, and made a few minor adjustments for my arrow shaft diameter and it is dead bang on. Fletches perfectly. I came to this jig from the bohning tower which is nice but often feathers are misaligned and you don't know that till you take the thing down-- i.e. feathers are set. With this jig you can see it before you glue it and it cleans up like a dream. Tho old and weathered, this Bitzi does its job, so longevity is in its genes. Yeah a bit slower than the tower but then so what...... this is a great jig you can pass down to your kids and their kids...." From woof156 from USA
5 out of 5 stars. "Great tool, easy to learn, it works well for me. Worth the money." From Tom from USA
5 out of 5 stars. "Having never fletched an arrow before using this Bitzenburger jig I was a little nervous. And I see that other reviewers were slightly overwhelmed by the jig. However, I found it all pretty simple to setup. I started out with some junk arrows that I wasn't worried about the outcome and even they came out perfectly. This jig is actually pretty darn simple to use. I like that it's made of metal, and will probably be the first and only jig I ever need. Which is why I bought it to begin with. The instructions were thorough, but not extremely extensive, and I'm sure that one search of youtube would help me with any questions anyone would ever have. I'm pleased with this jig to say the least." From David from USA
5 out of 5 stars. "Great Fletcher! This is a fantastic jig. I previously bought a plastic Bohning Blazer jig, but the difference in quality and finished fletching is like night and day. Spend a little more and get this Bitzenburger jig. If you are fletching arrows with fixed nocks (glued on nocks), and mix both traditional fletching (cock feather left/right) and compound fletching styles (cock feather up/down), you will also need to buy an alternate Blitzenburger Nock Receiver. Fully recommend this jig, It will last you a lifetime." From dzinn from USA
5 out of 5 stars. "Wouldn't Choose Anything Else. My coach suggested I get this fletcher because he has had his for about 20+years and still adores it and puts it to good use. I'm so glad he suggested it! I've only tested out a few others but none compare. Most of the experienced archers I know (quite a few who own archery stores) love their Bitzenberger Fletching Jigs! After a year with one of my own and helping refletch many others' arrows, I can definitely see why everyone loves it. With it's easily adjustable settings, it's worth every cent!" From Tatertot from USA
5 out of 5 stars. "Set Em UP & Run. I started using the Bitzenburger in 1966 to fletch and re-fletch arrows for Lester "Jugger" Gervais. After moving to Southern California in October 1966 and going to work for Easton Aluminum Mfg. in Van Nuyes, I was allowed to use the Bitzenburger set-up belonging to Mr. Doug Easton. He had 3 doz., set right, left and straight; all initially set up by Henry Bitzenburger, himself. Each doz was set on a circular piece of ¾" plywood designed to turn 360 degrees so that as you finished fletching the 12th shaft, the 1st was ready to be turned and fletched again. This was continued until all 12 were finished; precision, quick, clean, and ready to step outside and test on Mr. Easton's range; 70 meters in his front drive. To use the Bitzenburger is to drive a Beemer after using a VW for 10 years!!!!!! Wow. I continued to use the Bee's throughout the rest of my archery career; winning numerous State and Regional Amateur Championships before retiring in late 1971." From Mark the 41 Magnum Man from Terre Haute, Indiana, USA
5 out of 5 stars. "Learn from my experience! I've bought fletching jigs made by several other manufacturers and none compare to the Bitzenburger. I finally took a chance and bought a Bitzenburger and I am so glad I did. It is well worth the investment; I just wish I hadn't spent all that money on the other jigs. If I had that money back, I could buy another Bitzenburger!" From Shak from Bixby, Oklahoma, USA
