The nock wrap (or end serving) is the wrapping around the loop area of a bowstring. It protects the string fibers from abrasion and pressure at the contact points with the limb tips.

Functions:

  • Protects the string fibers
  • Stabilizes the loop
  • Extends the lifespan of the bowstring

The nock wrap is made from special, abrasion-resistant serving thread and is tightly wrapped around the bowstring.
