Crossbow Cams
Crossbow cams are mechanical components used in compound crossbows to control the movement of the string and cables during the shooting cycle. These rotating parts are located at the ends of the limbs and help manage the tension created when the crossbow is cocked.
As the string is drawn back, the cams rotate and guide the cables so that energy can be stored efficiently within the limbs. When the trigger is released, the cams rotate again and allow the stored energy to transfer through the string to launch the bolt.
Because these parts play a central role in the operation of a compound crossbow, they must remain correctly aligned and in good condition. If a cam becomes worn or damaged, replacing it can help restore smooth operation and consistent shooting performance.
