hyland770 0 Posted December 30, 2010 Right I have a friend who was changing his rear wheel bearing, cut a long story short he's buggered one of the caliper carrier bolts. For some reason he wants to know the thread size for such a bolt, its the m8 ones....any help would be greatly received, thanks and have a happy new year!

mic_VR 3 Posted December 30, 2010 Can't be 100% sure but i think its 1.5mm Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Critical_Mass 10 Posted December 30, 2010 Is he replacing the bolts or retapping the carriers? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daves16v 1 Posted December 30, 2010 I have one in my hand now - M10x20 - 1.25mm thread pitch Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hyland770 0 Posted December 30, 2010 Not really sure what his plan is, he just asked to ask you lot what the thread size is! He said its not 1.5mm as its finer than that he reckons its more like 1mm or .75mm?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Critical_Mass 10 Posted December 30, 2010 Possibly changing them for normal Hex bolts instead of those horrible allen head bolts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hyland770 0 Posted December 30, 2010 Woops sorry about that, I'm on my crapberry and its hard to see everything, think that thread size is right so hopefully he can get it sorted now, thanks for the help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
