Description
Have you ever had too much bolt It seems that some designers dont take hardware height into account when designing their water bottle cagesHaving bolt heads protrude into cage makes for more difficult bottle insertion and removal, mars bottles, and can remove the finish from the bolts themselves All of this is why we designed and machined our own Ultra-Low Profile Bottle cage Bolts from strong, corrosion-resistant 64 titanium But it turns out that they look pretty great filling unused bosses tooWith heads that sit only 175mm above the boss, our Ultra-Low Profile bolts look clean and minimize interference with bags or cables Not only are they attractive and functional, our Ultra-Low Profile Bottle cage Bolts weigh 12g each or 5g for a set of four Thats pretty darn lightImportant Note: These bolts wont be for everyone In order to achieve such a low head while maintaining bolt strength, these bolts use a 25mm hex That means that care must be taken and the following are required for installation:* High-quality 25mm hex bit in good condition* copper anti-seize compound or dielectric grease* Torque wrench set no higher than 2-3NmIn addition, it is wise to remove and re-grease the bolts annually to prevent seizing Re-grease more often if you sweat heavily, have leaky bottles of electrolyte drink, or ride on salted roads or near the sea
