Sold by the pair these stainless steel wishbone inserts simplify making your own speargun bands. They insert easily into the rubber tubing, and are held very securely inside the band. Wishbones tend to deteriorate before the rubber bands due to friction with the spear notches or tabs, the wishbone inserts eliminate the hassle of retying the bands to replace the wishbone. The Dyneema wishbone is replaced by simply tying a knot at each end. When the rubber of the band deteriorates and needs to be replaced, the wishbone inserts are reusable with your next set of bands.

The advantages of these wishbone inserts compared to others on the market is their small size and light weight, which translates into less drag for the bands.

The wishbone inserts are not to be confused with articulated all steel wishbones, such as those used with notched shafts of some pipe guns. We consider articulated steel wishbones, also known as finger removers, to be dangerous and unnecessary.
