What size end plug to extend INT shaft?

[Vuronov 18]

Just a quick question, I use intermediate sticks and have a Warrior Dynasty intermediate shaft I use. I want to extend it a bit as I think I cut it too short, and was wondering if Sr or Jr plugs would fit the shaft? Would Jr plugs be too small or Sr too big? Would I need to shave one down?

Anyone with experience putting a plug on an int shaft, I'd greatly appreciate the insight.

Thanks!

It depends on the shaft. Some could take SR while others must take JR. If I remember correctly, I think the Dynasty takes JR pretty well, and you could always put a layer of tape or two over the tenon to take up some space.

Thanks!

I was looking over the plugs on Icewarehouse and Warrior makes Sr and Jr composite end plugs and the description for the items seems to imply the Sr plug would work for an INT shaft, particularly the tapered Sr plug?

I didn't even know they made those. Comp end plugs cannot be shaven down though of course.

I would suggest junior and adding tape as AIREAYE suggested. Always easier than shaving down a senior.

I actually useto use junior plugs on a lot of my senior sticks. Especially those with concave shaft dimensions. I like the overall smaller shape as well.

Then I found those composite tapered ones and fell in love.

The Warrior composite plugs are fairly square and the tenon is hollow with thin walls. With that in mind, I was able to shave a little bit off of the edges of the tenon to have it fit into an APX shaft. It was a chore though and required a lot of precise sanding and a lot of heat! The plug is never coming out of that shaft because of that.
