Your bow’s string lengths can usually be found on the limb sticker. Select any two string colors and end serving color to ensure that your bow has the look and style you want.
A normal set of bow strings is either a bow string and a cable for a single cam bow or a bow string and two cables for hybrid/dual cam bows. If you’re unsure about which type you have, contact us or use our website’s chat feature and we’ll help you choose the right 452X bow string and cable set.
A “1-cam string” has a length of 70+ inches and a “2-cam string” has a length under 69 inches. The “control cable” usually looks like a shorter string and the “buss cable” has a “Y” shape with two (2) loops on one end and a single (1) loop on the other.
We recommend using a bow press for installation of most accessories to prevent potential damage.

However, when you need a new 452X bow string and cable set can vary widely depending on how often you shoot, where you shoot, and how you store and maintain your bow. Some frequent shooters even replace their strings and cables every few months.
